International Law

We broke it.

We broke international law.

Gone are the rules for countries to follow in accordance to each other.

For if we didn’t, why shouldn’t they?

Sure, we didn’t sign on it.

But breaking it is still wrong.

Our country is a criminal now.

What does that make us?

  • My Friend, the Moth

    Gentle as water sliding down your face,

    A voice like a bell.

    A smile as delicate as a rose,

    But as strong as an eagle.

    Hands and arms with ink scribbled over them like tattoos.

    Hair like a sunset.

  • Freedom

    Freedom is a concept I think about often.

    A concept I don't really understand.

    Yes, we have it.

    But it often feels like we don't.

    How am I supposed to see how free I truly am, when I just feel trapped?
