contagion

your truth

becomes our lie

*

like any other Tuesday mass shooting

*

your rape a number nothing is holy

trending

during the pandemic

#ThingsYouSayWhenYouCum

*

whitewashed the earth continues to bleed

*

the news behind the news our last shards of dignity

*

witch trial

no one ever

believes a prophet

*

kids in cages they say hell doesn’t exist

*

history repeating what bullets never solved

*

clinging to faith night still unfolds

*

hope in darkness a hymn I used to know

*

doomsday

you still act

surprised

*

wherever peace is no crosses burn

*

blackened sky our new normal is death

*

bombs over Aleppo
