recover

material goods

each of us has a feeling

a set experiences

how did provenance get us here

where are we going

with our desire to mean

when we face a consequence

what do we- individually-

seek to understand

shaping the environment

the world slips by our hand

to what end

we will live in the aftermath

the past will seem like a plan

why should we take 2nd place

who of us will lead a better

race



subjective objectivity

the feelings of the thing

each of us has them

even the dollar the plate of glass

the car the shirt the mask

even the sky the earth the air

we all possess feelings we cannot

share



holding something responsible for what they did not do

is racism

thinking you understand the experiences on another

is racism

making abusive predictions toward a peaceful future

is racism

parsing private emotions in the bodies of others

is racism



to whom it may concern

so long you held the body of the perpetrator within

please clean and heal even in your current state

hold tight to self make real your self 

recover
