this is revelation
the last
of the angels
are hovering over the wreckage
playing their melody
i thought it would sound better-
less like an off-key hymn more like r.e.m.
i watch my friend’s dad
a christian nationalist
cut off his ears
and start screaming
usa (this)
usa (means)
usa ( )
we all pray for a savior somehow
i looked for a sign from heaven
and i saw it all burning
i followed the smoke
to philadelphia
to find a garden
bedded with ashes
win or lose
the end is–
