Remember that MLK said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."

do not ask
if you are not free
to continue

my heart

a man
not apportioned
to be mine

a vicarious joy
its colours brighter
than a palette
of #jealous hues
