fall into the sky - a collection

them vs us

Constantly competing to complete the next moon landing

I want red white and blue on the moon

I want my stars in space, since we don't share the sky

Why make room for you when the second chair

at this table was just a footrest for me.

So let me move my mountains and mold them for me.

We got there first! Never mind the head start

Black hairbrushes and cinder skin

Are akin to justified murder here

When will someone tell them what THUG LIFE stands for?

It's a divide where distinguished didactics demolish each other

Black and white, red and blue

It's the color of the news articles these days!

A two-hue palette, let's paint with it

Let's spew lies about the other side together

True that this togetherness tells me who to fight against

With this perpetual war amongst each other

Sounds awfully familiar; the pigs are buying

the razorblades! Who to believe anymore?

Black and white newspapers aren't doing us any favors.

Swaddle toddlers in shirts starring jarring political statements 

Women hold their children's chubby hands

Try to paint pretty flowers over death, but they already understand

Children at 5 see the homeless we don't dare to discuss

They already know that it's them vs us.
