​Rip

 
Don’t rip me off
I’m trying to put all these pieces together
Don’t rip it apart
Seams. Hems, folded things. 
From segmented to solid. I’ll build
 
Don’t rip off my vote
I have this right
Those that came before me made sure
Casting then waiting. Reeling. Vocal
 
Don’t rip off my paycheck
That’s my sweat built in there
It’s taxing
It’s productive
 
Don’t rip off my time here
Earning and savoring every second
 
Don’t rip of my kids
The only test results they should be
waiting for are from midterm exams
Not backed-up labs
 
Don’t rip off my state
Blue
Withholding taxpayers’ holdings
Fuck the militia – their insecure plots and hate.
 
Don’t rip me off
Copy God-given right – my ideas
Streaming through my fingers
Energy for loose leaves
Rooted salvation
Energy to imagination
 
Don’t rip off my home
Our community
Their earth
 
What’s ripped off is never
returned the same
Tattered
Broken
Advantage taken
