ACAB

Handcuffed
for buying a
flower from a roadside
vendor. America summed up
right there.

Walking
by me as I
wrestle with my regret,
she laughs - and for a short moment I
too smile

Safe Space

The way
you talk about
it, you seem to think that
time really does stand still in my
embrace

The taste
of my cigar
and the whiskey in my
gullet can't fill the pit inside
my chest

Whiskey
dark chocolate,
smooth jazz, and some gritty
poetry are all that I need
tonight

Stand Proud

Ignore
racist bigots;
stand proud against their hate.
Trust me when I tell you that you
matter

staring
at Departures,
waiting with futile hope
that my flight's not cancelled; let me
get home
