"Happy new year" they said...

I look at you and what do I see?

A failed attempt of prosperity, a distraught man dismantling humanity.

I look at your feet and what do I see?

A man moving from country to country; unknowingly sucking the life out of everything around him.

Like a firecracker with an invisible fuse.

Destroying mankind is his muse.

I look at your mouth and what do I see?

The remorseless words rolling off your tongue so effortlessly against my ethnicity. You are present in times of prejudice but nowhere to be seen when it comes to serving justice.

However I look at you and hope for healing, transformation, and success. But for now you are a total mess.
