It’s America
Baked in lies
This story is gold
Pawns in a new game
Of trick chess
The polls will drown us
But we’ll place ballots
For old sins
That never finds sleep
A new tale to tell
Unhinged truth
Glorified beauty

This is such a great little poem, Tre. Predictable results with election btw..it’s going to be a scary 4 years, that’s for sure. 🥺

I wrote this poem two weeks before the actual election. I had already known what we were going to be dealing with. I felt it in my gut. *Shrugs*

Yeah, I think a lot of people guessed how it would turn out. Nonetheless, still heartbreaking 😞
