American Graffiti 2026
Here in the American 21st Century
A Black woman hangs from a tree in the South. Some
Have the willful, denying ignorance
To call the cause of death Suicide.
..
“Detention Centers” are being built
Here in the American 21st Century
Expressly for people who came into this country. The
Pretextual reason was to protect us from “the worst.”
..
The more people who fight this home-grown tyranny,
The less chance it has to engulf and kill
The goodness we have striven for, here
In America before these dark 21st Century times.
