the gordian knot in the gut of democracy


the gordian knot in the gut of democracy,
on this day before July4th.
the tug to the right, to the left,
the pit, the pendulum,  no equilibrium
racism, destruction, open #rebellion
forces aligning, dividing,
ripping apart the united
the status of our nation
people inflamed/ authoritarian,
power, injustice, chaos
no peace in this moment
a pandemic spreading, rising,
people without income, desperate
for a leader, a hero, the Rule of Law
