the world is upside down
what the hell is going on
your draws is showing
your junk is exposed
nobody wants to see that part of you
put your junk back under cover
what makes your shit more important than everybody elses
what makes your cockeyed opinion more important than everybody elses
everybody has those
so stop doing crazy shit trying to put yours front and center
and get over yourself!!!!

This not so new thing on everyone’s lips have led to unrest. The killing of George Floyd led to a diverse sunami of humanity taking to the streets. It looks and feels like a cohesive quilt. It feels like change.
not again –
this awakening
rests firmly
in the hands of time, will this last
or shatter like fragile glass
