Feel Better Washing it White
Freedom 19
the shit we had
All over
just last year
needs to be
spread right now
at pandemic speed
A new world order
is coming into view
Like creeping black
dirt I scraped
from corners
with no mercy
Unstoppable
I've been
compulsively
Scraping away
Thin layers of filth
Scrubbing
and painting
White
White
White
and then
with a splash of color
for attitude
in our shelter
spreading
kills across
Every darkened moment
Hardly allowing time
for anything else
But it feels...
...so damn goood...
