Slowly a Warning

Slowly a Warning

When the weather people
Keep changing the forecast
From hour to hour
And still miss
When cops stun
A murderer
And shoot
An unarmed child
When the post office
Says it’s been delivered
But it hasn’t
When someone
On the education committee
Doesn’t know
About rising water levels
When the doctor
Won’t treat
What you have
But something he can medicate
When the streets
Are silent
Because people fear guns
When kids
Are not allowed to
walk seven blocks
by themselves
