Policed by toxic masculinity,
an entire nation like a
battered wife,
twitching with PTSD
and suppressed anger.
Politicians praising the
abusers, enabling,
perpetuating, celebrating
the evil and demonizing
the victim.
Judges and courts
ready to find the
technicality that
can set a murdering
cop free.
Churches cheering
white supremacy and
patriotism as conjoined
twins never to be
parted.
America is a broken
home unleashing
her traumatized
children on an
astonished world.
