” Safe from Stigma “

Safe from stigma
living in dignity
upon appeal
softening
hard-edged ideas
yet still expressing
worries about spying
and downed power lines
inside of our psychic minds
reconciliation left unrealized
sanctions tightening
feeling the bite
via satellite terabytes
deemed, “demilitarized “
artificial islands
of weaponized hydrogen
Blue-and-White
stitched flags flying
seemingly united
by compromise...
