Let the Record Show…

Let the record show that this Amerucan poet has been subject to false profiling all her life.

Let it show that she has not been allowed a normal night of sleep in five years.

Let the record show that she is being made fun of right now, over and over, every time she moves.

Let the record show that her last carton of creamer contained strychnine.

That the chocolate she bought at the same time was doctored with arsenic.

Let the record show that her space is at this moment is filled with phosgene and tear gas.

Let the record show that she has been warning authorities of these behaviors for years, without result.

LET THE RECORD SHOW THAT A POET OF EXCELLENCE IS ACTIVELY UNWANTED IN THESE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
