People, power, a system of strings
never underestimate the congregation
it’s chorus that brought down walls
— the fractal prism of voices.
Collaged on one another it’s
collapsed prisons — even New York sings.
A montage of raised fists simultaneously
opening and closing
grasping for better wages, better conditions
better in General, — motors in action
and inaction, walking out an ascetic limbo
towards better education.
