Sick At Heart (7a)

SICK AT HEART

All the signs
Erupting pustules
Orlando
Las Vegas
Middle East a sarcoma
It’s clearly Stage Four

If You Prick Us

IF YOU PRICK US

Shed blood, whoever’s,
Is always the same colour.
Not white, nor black. Red.

Badge Of Shame

BADGE OF SHAME

Pride and prejudice
I love the book but hate it
Used as a motto

Standing Rock

STANDING ROCK

I have a struggle
In comprehending those

Who are using rubber bullets and tear gas
On these unarmed and peaceful protesters

How far they have lost their way
Since their birth as innocents

I wonder what lives they have endured
To have them land up in this dismal situation

Still, you do get a kind of identity
And the uniform and weapons come free
