Creative Writing Class Writing Assignment

I came here in my dream
a motionless presence
saw an entire city flying and one completely still
saw a false reality so true
it could have been my past life
saw an angry group of kids running after me
in the city we are sitting in as we speak
saw Harriet Tubman turn her back on the rules
while families of black and brown people got a chance at human life
saw a pair of time travelers take a break
and a white man go free from the courtroom by just being white
saw kids wearing all white sitting at the beach, waiting for the sunset
saw a cup full of dead flowers pleasing to be watered
saw an eager woman ready to teach her creative writing class
and a sneaky president preach nothing but sing all about "a better country"
