I sat on my Republican fence.
Looking at politicians from thence.
And what did I see
Looking back at me?
Disenfranchised freedoms with no sense.

BORERUST DEAL GO
PEACE TO THE LOVERS
MIGHT THOSE DISENFRANCHISED
FIND WAY TO ADAPT
LOVE BEYOND YOUR LOVEBOUDERS
LOVE IN ALL DEMITIONS
TURN YOUR UNEAGERNESS INTO THAT
WHAT'S, THAT YOU MUST ASK
THAT IS LOVE
I STAND PROUD TO SAY
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
The polling centers and their quillz,
that dating app and it’s whisker bait;
Built for ease and practicality;
Those disenfranchised left envious
seek being heard, seek being seen;
A plethora of marginalized prey;
Bait and switch with empty promises,
the meek never had a chance;
Yet another nasty Catfish left
without a coneflower of absolution.
A flower so unique
there was only one
Phoenicia a land of mystic
her beauty in bloom
a deception
her strength was the stem
not pretty soft petals
her love for humanity
touched the disenfranchised
her heart belonged to the poor
she was to be a gift
to a land that of sadness
failed to see
crusades never win
her true beauty a diamond hidden
within
If lost in yourself,
there’s no need to be found
As the self-disenfranchised,
circle around
They question and lecture,
and spew out their grief
To lure you within,
their false broken beliefs
“You really don’t get it, man,”
they sing from their bus
They say “You’re unhip”
and “You need to be us”
The chanting of laughter,
they march to inane
Where a prank on themselves
—waits in drug induced shame
(Villanova, Pennsylvania: December, 2019)
Said the old widow cook
to the drag queen son
feeding his/her dying abusive dad,
while offering her nurturing donation:
"I don't want your money.
We're not savages, yet."
Other words
that might have come to
desecrating mind:
not for sale, yet
not that victimized
not that wounded
not that uncivilized
not that poor
not that disenfranchised
not that disempowered
not that unenlightened
not that devastated
not that resourceless
not that dispassionate
not that judgmental
