Candice Renae Williams - Televised Thoughts

1.
Random acts of kindness
liars-I will rot for this-
10,000 one day to the family of 2
200 the next to the family of 10
all in the eyes of Dear ole Republic,
Do I volunteer periodically
to shed my fantasy- ideal life
and live for a moment in reality
Oh drama, drama cry if it is
drama to mourn what society would rather dread?
foolish be dead their vile quilt-I would rather see with mine eye!
Than deny them that bread!

2.
Red- the dripping blood stain a cloth sacrificial
' heres and theres' in a time
blue like a clear sky, or tinged ironic with bitter guilt
white-judging as thus with color none said
Colors to take thy blood kin away
and better thy bread.
