Barricades
When I joined the Republicans
on the barricades
a catered affair: lovely petits fours,
exotic teas and patriotic lattes. Furniture
mogul brought in non-union recliners. Under
later bombardment, speeches
became difficult to decipher,
though we knew of freedom
as text and subtext together.
When I joined the Democrats,
had lost their keys again, frenzied
air with everybody searching.
