TOMORROW
Children,
Windows are now doors
Streets are now sidewalks
They are now history
D-day,
Don't forget your toothbrush.
Flying colors,
Children wrestling with water
King,
Wrestling with his conscious
Kids,
They will get hurt
They already are
They stuff their belongings
They are having a sleep over
Water stings,
They "clean" the streets of what they call dirt.
Bathe in song,
kids so tiny, they are here for "teedom"
There is a party,
And your invited.
Like a plague,
The word spreads
Rude slurs-
burn into their heart, yet they answer with music.
Day one, jail filled
Day two, jail yard
Tomorrow-
Freedom.
