Contextual Comrades Incarcerated
EXTRA EXTRA
Contextual Comrades Incarcerated,
Victims of vitriols vexation
denied the rights of their inquisitors.
Censored by the voices of shame
guilt and hubris masquerading
as righteous indignation.
Virtue’s vanity
shouting from the “bully” pulpit
concerned only with its own reflection
“gutturally” genuflecting
before a muted “god”.
