The Reckoning-
I cannot let this day slip by
without shouting into the void of my disappointment.
The charges are gone, swept like dust under a gilded rug,
and yet the truth remains, burning:
He was guilty.
You know it.
I know it.
The weight of it presses against my chest,
how a man so stained could hold the reins again.
He ran for power to shield himself,
a crown to escape the scales of justice.
He will pardon himself,
stand smug on the green of manicured lies,
a golf swing on our dime,
while we watch,
while we ache.
Do you remember?
He told them to march.
I saw it.
I was there, and the echoes of that day
still ricochet in my mind.
I will not forget.
I will not forgive.
Not the man who lit the match,
nor the hands that handed him the flame.
You who cast your vote,
for cheaper gas, for eggs, for promises spun from deceit,
or worse—
you, who saw the ugliness and shrugged.
He is a bigot, and it didn’t stop you.
He is cruel, and you let it slide.
You looked away, silent, complicit.
And in that silence, the cracks widened.
The grave error was yours,
but I do not have the breath left
to plead with you to see.
I will watch as it unfolds,
as the curtain lifts on this tragedy we have built,
brick by brick, with our denial.
And when the moment arrives—
when the mask slips and the monster stands revealed—
it will be too late.
Do you see the bodies yet?
The ones already fallen,
the ones to come?
They are part of the price,
written in the fine print of your choices.
There is no blanket thick enough to hide under now,
no silence deep enough to escape the echo of what is coming.
None of us will walk away unscathed.
Not even you.

@WomenBeingAwful This is a stomach? 🤔

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Donald Trump is not thinking about you. He only sees power as a means to his ends. America is ready to turn the page.

[StrivingForFIRE @FireStriving]

@w_terrence Absolutely will vote for Kamala. Trump is a traitor to our country and wants to be its Dictator. Don’t let him fool you

@Target why did the price of pasta just increase by 50%?! The store brand pasta was just 99 cents a pound, it jumped to $1.29 last week and now all of a sudden it is $1.49! Other items on the site also increased substantially all of a sudden. I thought #inflation had slowed down!

@PopCrave Is that a UAP in his picture on the top left??! 🛸 #UAPs

[StrivingForFIRE @FireStriving]

See that’s the thing. These are real children. Developed, healthy, viable. A whole life ahead of them. Gun laws allow them to be killed just like that and no one does anything about it. Instead they’re focusing their attention to saving tiny specs of tissue #RoeVsWade #GunControl

@dr_ench Unbelievable. If anyone else walked on stage they would have been arrested. That was not OK. #cancelWillSmith

[StrivingForFIRE @FireStriving]

You can’t just walk up on stage and punch someone, then win an award 10 minutes later #oscars #whatjusthappened #cancelWillSmith That is not OK. Chris Rock should press charges

[StrivingForFIRE @FireStriving]

@enews It’s not ok to walk up on stage and hit anyone. Chris Rock should press charges. #cancelWillSmith
