a ringing bell
may not be heard
but it cannot
be unrung…
a falling tree
not seen or heard
still falls…
the only thing
that can be self-evident
is a burning bush
once held
leaving behind
a wrinkled
scared hand…
likewise is injustice
when there is
no justice around
as is democracy
not practiced
is evident mockery
we see…
social distancing
shading disparity
and racism
like pandemics
are nothing new…
if social divide
cures
we are safe
in having come
thus far
not to be left
alone
and totally
abandoned:
such audacious
mendacity
america!
