Josef Dubinski Poet Free verse

Gulf

There’s a gulf
A divide
It’s as wide
As Mexico 
From the inside
Out to the borderlines

There’s a cause
Raisin d’être 
In your head
In the mess yeah
I’m buried in
A sea of broken dreams

There’s a river
And a canyon 
And I’m stranded
Cuz I’m standing
On the corner
Hands reaching out

Are you there?
Do you care?
It’s not your fault
 I’m standing here
People like me
Everywhere 

There’s a difference
A separation 
Widening
Across the nation 
Are you aware
Are you?
