THE FOLLOWING POEM WAS SELECTED IN WINGWORD POETRY PRIZE 2023 LONGLIST.
Do it, not just because you owe it to yourself
The closets filled up, skulls all over the shelves
All were created equal, don't mean the round peg's a square
Then what have you indulging in the age of debate of what's not and what's fair
The very attitude that's been a concern today
Will be the fortitude to unite your kingdom and lead the way
