Friends I Shouldn't Have - June 27, 2023

I know what you’ve done


you know what you’ve done


came to this country

and stayed longer

than you knew you should


existing undocumented living

invisible or as someone else

or no one at all


gardener

pool man

housecleaner


people I shouldn’t know

with smiles I shouldn’t return

friends I’m not supposed to have


but that’s what love does

breaks the laws of man

let’s the heart be judge


in a courtroom

where right and wrong

has no evidence
