half the world
is dreaming
the other half
awake
and we
are locked
in negotiations
over which side
we should take

poem
I had to deny
the gods
beyond my reach
to keep
my will
from bending
sometimes
you have to
anoint yourself
if you want
a happy ending.
Poem: one
one nation
under the gods
seemingly indivisible
except for
the oppressed
the exploited
the invisible
one nation
militarized
with tanks
and with guns
as if might
is always right
and how
its will be done
one nation
of prisons
one nation
of cops
of racism
and violence
when does
it stop?
one nation
of outrage
at the hatred
that seethes
one nation
of people
underfoot
begging
just to breathe
one nation
that has
far too many
have nots
and a new
revolution
that needs
to be fought
poem
Everyone
is waiting
for the cure
for the hatred
for the indifference
no one should
ever endure
they want
to make you
targets
they want
to make you
less
this is
one more
pandemic
that is not
addressed
Poem
Listen
to the rain
it is the voice
of spring
sweeping
winter’s ashes
revitalizing everything
listen
to the rain
another day
is coming
its fingers
on the windowpane
nervously drumming
listen
to the rain
it is not always sad
do not listen
to me
i have nothing
more to add
