When Truth Lingers

like trodden weeds.

What happened
in the space of time
who sanctioned
our committed crime

Thrust in the queue 
Bourgeois decree
time travel through 
choice autonomy

Airy chatter
children playing
post-mind scatter
is it graying?

Burn it down
Our leaders beckon
the prize a crown
more death no reckon

Sorrows find me
in spaces tender
I am free
no defense to render

Like trodden weeds
alone all winter
light it pleads
when truth lingers

Dedicated to all who lost their lives, their health, their livelihoods, in these last four years due to covid, covid complications, forced (or by choice) vaccinations and an absolute withholding of positive, validated information stoked by a need for power. It never works.

God keep you,
