Popcorn

a lesbian couple on my bus home from school

a man in a punk battle jacket on the street

my mother's female CEO group chat blowing up

four of my teachers taking the following day off

winter's coming on fast- 
better chop enough wood. 

pluck the last fruits of the harvest- 
then say goodnight to the garden, 
resting under a blanket of leaves and love. 

When best friends of old

become polite passersby

still give them a smile and let your heart be full

for theirs are broken too

and need to be reminded to mend.

Make America Great Again

With a dictator and fascism 

We choose hatred over empathy 

Just to protect our weaponry

So screw Trans right and wildlife
