went to the government website
‘cause I knew my rights must abound
but the page post said we’re sorry
your civil rights cannot be found

they may have been removed
or they’re on a different floor
or otherwise unavailable
error code 404

I wrote a poem about you
I know you didn’t see it
It’s really kind of too bad
‘Cause it might just be my favorite

But you’re running in your circles
Reaching out for that brass ring
It’s just sometimes I start thinking
We could have had a thing

Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE:

"No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested".

"Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".

#kooky,
how history l o v e s
to pretend
it never mocked the minds
it later called visionaries—

it was the m e t h o d—
and the madness?
to bend reality
until it let them
b r e a t h e.

we laid our cards out on the table
no words were left unspoken
we played the hand that we were dealt
in the game of the heartbroken

another trip around the sun
good or bad this cycle’s done
to Father Time my past I relinquish
may the Newborn Year grant your wish

we sometimes feel so helpless
but we always have a say
sometimes our sole power
is just to walk away

didn’t hear a sleigh bell jingle
no prancing hooves on the roof
no ho ho ho by the fireplace
no glimpse of Santa before he goes poof

yet Christmas morning was amazing
because it came with your presence
and after all isn’t it true
that is always the best present

left town

take time

don’t be a surrogate for yourself
show up in your authentic glory
no one else has the power
to write your immortal story

I #recall the winters of my youth
The fight to keep #warm
While playing in the snow

#jumpy with anticipation
Of the magic holiday
That thrilled every child

Now birds no longer turn
Their #beaks to the south
Winters here are too warm

The rain and wind is all

the best boho
I know
is in NoHo
if you do go
take a little dough
don’t miss the Oxbow

nothing can be done they say
all we can do is pray
empty words as we lose the lights
dying for our second amendment rights

what unholy spell has he cast
you’d think his nose had twitched
they see his evil as something good
it’s as if they are bewitched
