May 2014
could there ever be another?
should anyone even try?
eloquently elaborating on social trends
in depends
older than dirt
shades matched in heaven
thinking back to David Greer
“Pennzoil” “Freedom”
lost in thoughts  
of America losing a legend
a hero
poetic goddess blessing us with her words
long enough for this mortal coil
she flies free now as only imagined in the quiet
no longer bound to reflect on injustice
almost a century of witnessing inequality
in the land of hope
is more than anyone should have to bear
today, may 28 2014, one caged bird sings a different song
