a baby sobs uncontrollably after unrequited hunger or hurtful startlement smite her.

a young lover sobs unrelievedly in the face of permanent, preventable, hormone-driven loss.

a soldier sobs for the rest of his life, haunted by the phantasms of life-changing mayhem.

ah, but the ocean throbs and sobs with the orphaning of her children and the unsustainable slaughterhouse her depths have become, and she weeps more tears than ever humanity has.

let us not sob for that. let us atone.
