Unprocessed Feelings in the Wake of Another Anniversary of the Pulse Nightclub Massacre
Encroaching oblivion
He stands all day on conquered skulls
Lamenting the sanguine hue it casts on his hands;
The judgement it brings.
With ease he moves
Sure-footed knowing
He will never slip,
Tumble down;
join us.
Below we are pelicans
Yearning never again to feed our young
With our own life’s blood.
