in lands
of sovereignty
i find my lines
coming up
empty handed
pinched out
at the punctuations
unjustified
as i live this
lie
you build for me
yet i can't
break free
locked into this
halo
trivial and true
i just want to
escape from you
and as the fear
melts into skin
i am learning
without my card
i become an enemy
being sent off
to die
and i cant
just live alone
on a beach
because its owned
and i cant
change my cards
they were dealt
for me
and im imprisoned
into this
indoctrination
for better or for worse
as i find
my life is less
than others
and my rights
get stripped away
like the sun
on a cloudy day
erasing the heat
creating a chill
i feel in my veins
as im finding out
i am only as american
and my orientation
allows
and if i hide my soul
i create a hole
for penetration thats
brutal
beating and bruising
a feeling of using
me as property
not giving my heart
just selling my body
to live a life
equal to you
but the votes have been
signed
the change has come
and ive been
left to be swept
openly under the
rug
