The Map Is Upside Down

Disgust grows inside of her

Like an unborn child

She never wanted.

 

Jokes of scarred backs, scarred stomachs, scarred humans

Leave her unsettled.

Thinking during early mornings

Where did we go wrong?

 

No one hears screaming anymore

We’ve all gone deaf

Too many voices

Twice as many ears

And we walk along the street

Forgetting to look twice

Not hearing the blaring car horn.
