Poetry Is My Protest: Poem #3



The trampoline is a sacred space 
You remove your shoes before entering
The holy frolic of childhood laughter 
The reverence of drunken joy. 
Child. Priest. 
Of Kings & Queens,
With tilted crowns
And overgrown robes.
We are all refugees seeking solace
From the war-torn lands
Of groceries & gasoline.
