Is this
worth it,
just for some
plastic?
Just for some
Made In China
labels?
Just for some
security
that was never ours?
Another
apartment
was renovated
in Brooklyn, yesterday.
3 generations
of bodies move on,
white faces walk in
and name
another place
their own.
Does the fountain
shower head
rain gold?
Is the comeless
sex with your husband
of nine years fulfilling?
Downtown Manhattan
lays on the back of slaves.
Where will you
lay your head tonight?
Will you join them?
