Gray gloom greets mid-January morn,
Days of defiance start
On waves of joint effort borne
From humble, united heart
Its story outlined with resolve
To break dawn’s smoggy gloom
Hearts and hands warmly dissolve
Hate’s icy forecast of doom

False Flags
You wave banners
branded with badges
of counterfeit causes
symbols of sophistic
and stagnant standards
The flags you fly
stamped and striped
in contrarian colors
announce allegiance
to divisive ideals
It’s time to surrender
your pride to truth
retreat to the colors
of liberty and justice
for all
