Independence Day

I guess the fourth is not to be
our years together end at three
the truth self-evident
oh say can you see
the fireworks are gone
so are we
The Liberty Bell
tolls for thee
and me
a patriot of regret
we never made that trip out West
or baked Mom’s apple pie
but we made time for conflict
you and I
I’m sorry for the things I said
declarations with no pledge
we are ununited
but mostly I’m sorry
we’ll live independently
because I could go on loving you
and stars and stripes forever.

The Lioness

Give the ants their manifesto
the bees their history
let the camel describe the elephant
dromedarily
While the lioness rests on a serif raft
before executing her craft
only through hunger or boredom
does she condescend to rise
s t r e t c h
scratch out a few choice words
of conflict or change
knead them with her switchblade claws
then pause
curl up on a tuft of italic grass
in her tight cursive mass
like a capital G
to go back to sleep

Don’t worry, the AI detector is on the scent. And he’s real.
