American Tragedy

The major tragedy in America
is that so many good people
who are doing so many good things
no longer control their own destinies

and lack the awareness
and lack the anger
and lack the faith
and lack the numbers

in a culture where ignorance
grows faster than historical insight
--these good people are trapped
in a status quo that has become

a noose around their necks
because they act as if
nothing can happen to them.
R.I.P.
