A Completely Friendly Political Discussion Between Emmett Till, Monique Thomas, and Brandon Teena
A free verse poem

When my right
to exist
as I am
well within my own
realm of Truth
is perceived
by you as
a Wrong
while your rage
and status-quo
systems seek to
obliterate
all that belongs
to what’s right
and living
within me,
well then,
alright, my friend,
lynch me if I’m wrong,
but it would seem
we’re well past any
good-faith debate
of wrong and right.
