I Am So Sick

“There was a respected powerful man
Being mean with a reckless hand”

– John Trudell

45’s racism is as transparent

As the slat wall he wants

To keep the epidermisly

Darker than him

Bipedal earthling artists

On the other side

I am so sick

Of this wall discussion

It is beneath us

Oh wait

That is the tunnel

Underneath it

Hopefully

I’ll get over it

Just have to

Work through it

Till we all realize

We are all on

The same spaceship

Is that so f’n difficult?

Our only border

Protecting all of us

Is that eggshell

Fragile atmosphere

That sees

What is happening

Patience wearing thin

Must need remember

“It’s just a ride. And we can change it anytime we want. It’s only a choice. No effort, no work, no job, no savings and money. A choice, right now, between fear and love.

The eyes of fear want you to put bigger locks on your doors, buy guns, close yourself off. The eyes of love, instead, see all of us as one.

Here’s what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money that we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace.”
