We light our vigil candles
Quivering orange against
Late winter skies
Standing still, we let our
Little flames dance while
We hum the dirge for the dead
But instead, I want to torch
The hateful homes
The bedsheets of those that
Dream of supremacy
I want to melt down their guns
Make our own weapons:
Silver tipped spears
Etched with the names of those
Victimized by white terror
And send them spiraling
Into the still-beating
Hearts of those cloaked in white
Stain those robes red

And then we reeducate each other
We speak to a people's history
We listen to silenced voices
We tear down those racist monuments:
Their civil war statues and privatized prisons
