Men in black jackets on my left
Men in white jackets on my right
A slowly fading awkward light.
I see their world and all its depth.
I see their world and all its breadth.
I neither kneel nor feign a smile.
I don no mask for all that while.
Only certain lives do matter
By their standard on their ladder.
I shall not walk down their dark aisle.

This is dark but so good ,💜
