You say equality
you tell me from your gilded pedestal
where the sun is ever bright
and the rain only drizzles
that I should weather the storm
You say equality
but equality isn’t a borrowed suit of armor
nor is it a sword and shield
given with the confidence that I won’t be able to wield them
you say equality
at this point
I’m not sure the word has any meaning
I can see that your persistent obstinance
is the sum of you
