Scream
Loud and unapologetically from rooftops
Backyards, front yards and
Windows of passing cars,
Scream!
talking is a waste of time, lines of
people cars lemmings waiting,
red lights, No Green! Concrete
blacktop unbroken but for the occasional flag.
New patriots without answers. Don’t care!
SCREAM! Because I do…
Sit in silence, left or right noisy flags waiving
In a thunderous wind without meaning, hidden
Maybe in silence-refuse blows across a dusty
Street, plastic bottles and greasy cheese-stained
Wrappers, boarded windows-closed shops.
SCREAMING! Talking is a waste of time.
