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...

When a boy, the world appears near
climbing over fences, no need to open a gate

The caretaker had many keys, we thought
he was the boss, wore a yellow coat
and walked with dignity
He shouted at us kids to show who
tough he was, but most of the time
he let us play in the schoolyard
in a ditch, a trapped cat. we lowered
a bucket down for the moggy to jump into
but it was not willing, the...
