Time To Go

When did you know it was time to go? To be the one who walked away from Omelas?

When the leader of the United States and all who supported him chose not to wear masks and not vaccinate and not social distance and not shut down the borders in time and not test and… and leave hundreds of thousands of people to die from a preventable illness?

When the country paid trillions of dollars to rich people to save the stock market when COVID-19 hit, while giving the rest of us table scraps?

When Monsanto poisoned us with RoundUp?

When DuPont and 3M poisoned the ground and the water for generations?

When you realized you were never going to have a million dollars, no matter how hard you worked?

When they burned thousands upon thousands with napalm?

When they burned Black Wall Street?

When they burned the cross on the lawn?

When you realized you had asthma because your parents were too poor to move away when Robert Moses put up a highway near your house?

…when will it finally be enough?
