Invective and Rage

Invective and rage,
Today’s social currency.
Fire consuming all

Girl’s Life

Girls spend 
Much time
Debating their lack,
Chewing their soul
With vigor.

Always some fault,
This culture determined 
To keep their place
Defining them
By false
Inadequacy.

Ferguson

Violence doesn’t heal.
Tis a short term thing,
Self-inflicted grief
Building upon agony.

Simmering wreckage,
Quite close to home.
New destruction layered
Upon the old.

Gargantuan pachyderm 
Calmly sits,
Ignored.
