i see facebook photos of moms to be;
gender reveal party photos.
meanwhile children die in incubators
of preventable, manageable, avoidable and improbable complications –
that we are so insulated from,
with structures built from the technology
proven and tested on that same battlefield.

sunshine and rainbows here
rubble and drone strikes there.
two things can exist at once
yet my mind can’t reconcile the reason.
actually it can.
Cause you know, just as much as i do
that the answer is so fucking simple

to those that are just waking up
good morning to you
we don’t have a continental breakfast
we don’t have fresh sheets every morning
this isn’t the hilton
its not even the red roof inn

youre waking up to something
that a lot of people; and machines
never intended for you to see
and gaslit you the whole time

its not my place but im sorry…

….sorry that you have to know this

to know this insidious tragedy that we cant even redirect

but amerika go brrr

and the shells will keep dropping
