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...
