we just
wanted
to let you know
we’re sitting here
you may not
see us
but
we
are sitting
here
and
as you
negotiate
our future
we thought
you’d like to know
we’re sitting here
but
you appear
not to see us
but
we are
sitting here
watching you
smile into the camera
waving your hands
as if
you see us
but
we’ve decided
that you
cannot see
us
so we’ve
decided
to
stand

when
i
drove up
aunt bea
was standing
on the side
of the street
holding a sign
that said
o-h-w-c-s
i said
aunt bea
did you mean
o-w-s
she said
no
this message is
to those
confused few
who are wondering
why those children
are out on the street
the message
i’m sending is
out
here
with
conviction
stupid
there shall be
no
resurrection
your way
of life
was
caught upon
the wings
of an albatross
headed
out beyond
tomorrow
long before
your eyes
were opened
to this day
look not
to the vast sea
for your fate
but rather
into the tide pools
amongst
the jagged rocks
where gulls
scavenge
for
survival
