2016

Ah, 2016

Thinking about it makes me want to scream.

Something about it is so terrible

is it because it was so regrettable?

that Trump won the election?

That a mass shooting was in every newspaper section?

Or, prehaps,

It was circumstance.

Because maybe

there is still not full equality.

Misogyny

is still the leading committe,

Blacks are still

not fully fulfilled.

At least there were many

Good movies

and memes.
