My best friends live in New York
And Colorado
I live
in Minnesota
They are miles away
And
Sometimes
I feel lost without them.
It’s hard for me
to find people
I like to be around
And
I haven’t found any
who live in Minnesota
yet.
But I’m working on it
And I think I’ll figure it out
someday.
Democracy is fragile as a house of cards with many, many layers
Many, many pieces
Many, many things that could go wrong
The slightest breath, enough to bring the whole thing crumbling
He doesn’t look at me
Like I look at him
I know exactly what he does at recess
Where he eats lunch
His middle name
I know what books he likes
What video games
I’ve slept in the same room with him
Sometimes I feel like I am running on a treadmill towards a big shiny sign that says “Relaxation.” Surronding the big shiny words are lots of other words.
