Independence Day 2022 - Aug.13, 2022

just another 4th of July

parades fireworks

backyard barbeques

there’re complaints

on the other side

of the fence

a neighbor

you can’t see

has you in their sights

armed with a hotdog

loaded with sarcasm

he rails a changing America

new faces of diversity

tolerance with gritted teeth

as I yell

to my gay friends

burgers are ready
