I look for compatriots
in this callous and cruel
world.
I seek allies who will help
me overcome
the horrors that were done
to everyone.
I long for
the warm storm
to wash away
the wicked muck
of too much
hateful stuff,
deeply paining
dark rhetoric
that wealthy men
generate,
to create
fear and hate.
I wait
subdued
by the desire
to inspire
in contrast
with a need
to find peace
from a
spiteful past,
but even among peers
I am alone.
