Dear Anonymous | This Is Not A Poem
(I interrupt my NaPoWriMo flow with this important request to the universe.)
my son, he looks
like some of you. has crackling
synapses quick with connections
like Signac painted Felix Feneon.
an orchid against a backdrop
70 years too early. dots
most of us disregard. or wllfull
disregard rhythm With Beats And
Angles, Tones and Tints.
You can hear
the binary pattering
of angel bytes.
and bits mumuring hush.
shhh, shades that color
the truth with gesso.
show me how light
slips through and vibrant
pigments can not be subdued
I know you can see me,
that walk free murderer, and
understand what to do. my son
looks like Trayvon Martin,
too. I believe in justice.
one of the many
who loves you.
NOTE: George Zimmerman, the man who shot Trayvon Martin has put up a website asking for donations. In his words, "any funds provided are used only for living expenses and legal defense, in lieu of my forced inability to maintain employment." Yesterday, his site crashed because the servers couldn't handle the hits after MSNBC reported the story. Trayvon Martin was an unarmed 17 year old African American boy returning home form a convienance store.
