Walls
Look at these walls. They’re everywhere decreed.
Inside me. Inside you. Between us too.
‘tween my neighbors and me, walls intercede.
Houses of walls, fences blocking the view.
South at the border they build chunks of walls.
Hate chunks and fear chunks materialized
Steely expressions of bigoted drawls.
Essence of lynch mobs surrealialized.
A dike is a wall. It holds back the sea
Minds can hold walls that don’t need installing.
Billionaire dikes holding back you and me.
They mask the good; they hide the appalling.
...
Inside me. Inside you. Between us too.

Essence of lynch mobs surrealialized.
A dike is a wall. It holds back the sea
Minds can hold walls that don’t need installing.
Billionaire dikes holding back you and me.
They mask the good; they hide the appalling.

A FACE
A face changes according to the shadow
From every look it meets
To please, to blend in, to be tender
Or hide, defend itself
So, between laughter and silences
Under each transformation
There is a truth, a reason
A single face remains and lights up.
From every look it meets
To please, to blend in, to be tender
Or hide, defend itself
So, between laughter and silences
Under each transformation
There is a truth, a reason
A single face remains and lights up.
