film on the rocks date:
a weeknight scramble for food
before rush hour
on baby’s first day
of walking to seventh grade
to see Black Panther
every white person
sitting under this blue sky
has made this violence
it’s in every plot
every “love” vindication
every U.S. film
will there be a day
when we will glorify peace?
win power with peace?
i am still waiting
for a better power trip
that wins wars with love.
