Pick a Color
Please slow down.
I'm worried about them.
I see your babies
and I know they'd like you to watch
even though they don't say it.
In the end they'll be okay
but I saw that wreck
the truck
the glass.
I heard it.
Mother's never scream so hard as when blue police officers pry open a car and she's the only one in it
who can scream.
Yes,
I'm the one who gave the sign
that went unseen,
my only job.
If I could only be yellow forever.
And all the others, they stare,
wondering if I'll be taken down because of it.
But I'm not broken,
not yet.
