Generational
July 6, 2016
blood of the youth is her mortar,
smothered pleas her bricks,
they say she reeks of Hope
the filthy sinner
this juvenile soldier
bleeds for change?
the foolish girl
love over logic
heart over head
relent, they say
time will mold you
you’ll see
she will douse their words in gasoline
she will dodge daggers and laugh
she will ink her skin with their doubts
and so she is introduced
to the quiet terror
of being alight
in darkness.
