Let’s Be A Great Nation?
You
BOLD the lines
over my words, some one
I trusted knew better
how to discern from words
the actual applications,
the actual intentions,
the truth unveiled in entirety,
not COPY, LIFT, PASTE
over the face of me
and they
WITHOUT the whole story
get a simple redaction —
untrust-worthy, through delineation
how a WORLD dehumanizes
by purpose of story…
MY WORDS
were stolen, misrepresented,
doesn’t speak to the WHOLE
as tyranny distracts US from ourselves.

I’ve learned I  have great PATIENCE,
WILL, SELF-ESTEEM
in the shadows of manipulators
and a sea of fools.
If you THINK I called you
STUPID, don’t worry.
I include ME
for humiliation and shame
laid at MY feet,
having answered the door
many times before
without turning THEM away,
the divisive,
who stand for
pitting US against one another.

I didn’t lend to a noble cause —
by association — causing depletion.
I didn’t lend to ME,
how??

I don’t see so well, suddenly. Only myself to BLAME.
