remember, remember
fireworks were only cool
before PTSD

my bones disinterred
after sepulchral centuries
what will they think,
these inheritors of the earth?
Here was a woman who fought for justice
amidst a society weighted against the Other,
of just some old geezer
with inexplicable scars on his psyche?
