executive action

(october 10, 2019)

by Paul Cech / October 13th, 2019

a child screams
nightmares enter dreams
an age-old tale retold

refugees–
women
children
the old

geopolitical ideology
bizarrely twisted with mythology
creates an opportunity
for some to flee
so others can be free

a child’s scream
nightmare filled dreams
refugees—
women
children
the old
