Fascism – C & K

When?

sitting by the shard of sunlight
watching the way the world is turning with the mob
hearing the echoes of Fascism

watching the cat’s lazy stretch
whispering words of sorrow to the emptiness of home
wondering if I make an impact

When will they start burning my books?

The weight of hypocrisy
weighing down my shoulders,

until I can no longer stand up,
nor cry for the suffering

I see

I hear

I dare not look away from this,
I will not turn the news off

There is humanity and kindness
within my thoughts

and in my

quiet rebellion against fascism
