stream of consciousness on what matters
Anxious to see change.
Scrolling, Tweeting, Posting—
new hashtags. same stories.
We always wear masks,
but are looking to be seen.
With and without—afraid.
Hidden behind screens.
Uncomfortable convos.
Wait til we’re in person.
Underneath the sheets,
insomnia visits me.
Activists rise up!
So what is the plan?
Leaders and followers blur.
The movement stands still.
all black lives matter.
Especially ones ignored.
Now they’re top of mind.
