Independence Day
I.
The kick of equality
across a continent
and a dose of
What. The. Fuck
does not match
the Q&A quiz
I took at 18
when I could finally vote
"What can you not stand, Tammy?"
"Hypocrisy."
Yet -
here it is—mangy hair
matted to the scalp,
shoveling the ground
to bury bones of truth
every passing moment
Its lids barely hang
by the teeth of its skin
blocking its eyesight
to democracy
dragging all that weight
killing off the last...

Friend and foe
within pomegranate depths
I become harvester
your world so different
from mine where
just for you
I became today
piercing through
each embroidery
cross stitching
upon each russet
elevations evolution
still caged between
flags circles crowns
crowds and crosses
sacred union has no gender
it goes beyond histories
your name will be given
at the end where all
coiled truths exist
they want to become
singers screamers
whisperers
love me, love me not ...
I become harvester
your world so different
from mine where
just for you
I became today
piercing through
each embroidery
cross stitching
upon each russet
elevations evolution
still caged between
flags circles crowns
crowds and crosses
sacred union has no gender
it goes beyond histories
your name will be given
at the end where all
coiled truths exist
they want to become
singers screamers
whisperers
love me, love me not ...

Skin Talk
In America my skin is my rope, every melinated fiber of it , society stretches it around my throat. My enemies wear hatred like a coat.
My people became a American nightmare floating on a boat. Slavery was only emancipated, in the deceptions written in their quotes.
Burning crosses lighting the images of evil laughing ghost. Moses shouting let my people go, pharaoh said murder, every first born son, so their population would not grow.
My people shouting let freedom ring. And in trees in the summer breeze.Tearful ebony eyes watched freedom swing.
...
