I lost myself in the moment and found myself for a lifetime

Do I look fat in this?

LBelans 9.8.2021

​

Do I look fat

in this outrage?

Puffed up?

 

Do my hips look wide

when I stand astride

injustice?

 

                                        Tell me.

 

Do I look hot

in this outrage,

bloated?

 

Do my cheeks look red

when I count the dead,

the murdered?

 

                                         Don’t lie.

 

DeSantis, bloodied

in transmission;

gloating.

 

With his flexed-up arm

he injects vast harm

in children.

 

Abbott,  perfumed

in perdition;

fetid.

 

He wreaks of fear

for his flagging career

in Texas.

 

                                            Tell them.

​

Unmask their ambition

their disgusting derision.

Defrock them,

scream and shout!

 

No emperor’s dream

should make them so mean.

Enough!

Hell, vote them out!
