Relinquish

hubris of responsibility

bereft of gifts

lacking energy to respond

 

 

Poor, shallow thinkers abound

yet we insist on mollifying their

shouts of equality, absorbing into

their sloppy, squishy discourse

 

 

Make America States Again!

 

 

Gave it all away for love

never received

Let  my life be paved by fictionhs

I believed

Nothing left to give (never expected

an end like this)

No bright blessings call

Empty space absorbed as pain

because I gave it all

 

 

Nothing but empty days, drugged out nights

Condemned to oozing rights, rites that

never quell the pain

Not punishment for shame – no blame

our run replaced, fit to this crumbling cage.

 

 

Don’t You Feel Sick Too?
