leading via flags:
half-mast for Asian victims;
visit to Georgia
against the blue sky
we try to erase their hate
with gestures of love
What Leadership Looks Like
patriotism
Puffed Pockets of Hope
kitty loves jackets
Patagonia-repaired
perfectly pink warmth
Calm After Storm
blue sky autumn day
blue as our new president
not perfect, but. still.
Kamala for the Win
here we are. winning.
by a margin way too slim.
at least we win her.
Blue Morning
invading our walk
this kitty thinks she’s a dog
(Trump’s America)
but we’ll win it back
as i splash blue on two screens
for my kids to watch
Dear Fellow White Voters
your majority
is as fleeting as winter
during climate change
Just Three Words
Vamos a ganar
with this American map
he knows nothing of
every moment counts
and he has read my soul here
with these three small words
The Blues. For Blue.
every election:
because they are so diverse
urbanites vote blue
all it really takes
is a short conversation
with someone different
Democracy in Action
on this dreary day
plagued by plagues, wildfires
votes matter so much
Debates
“presidential” words
have left our society
with this disaster
but what can we do?
race the sunrise up the trail?
or trip ourselves down?
either way, we pant,
exhausted before the day
can even burn us.
