Last Kiss
She's going home today,
back to New York City
and its eclectic mix of
people,
where they pretty much
don't care
about your skin colour,
about your religion,
about your politics.
What matters more
is whether you can
smile through adversity
and turn an insult
into something
beautiful.
She's going home today,
I just wish it wasn't
in a lead lined casket
with homophobic slurs
carved into her face
and the skin of her arm
mottled by battery
acid.
