ashamed, yeah—
to be american,
to watch the lies crawl
out of every tv set,
to see men with soft hands
wave flags
while kids go hungry.
this isn’t a dream,
it’s a bad hangover
that won’t end.
still,
I light up a smoke,
watch the sun drag itself
over the busted horizon,
and wonder
how much longer
before the whole damn thing
goes up in flames.

Experiencing not knowing what you are doing,
take the risk.
Experiencing being read by not writing,
take the risk.
Experiencing what you feel is right,
take the risk.
Experiencing public criticism,
take the risk.
Experiencing life’s unknowns,
take the risk.
Experiencing sadness to better feel happiness,
take the risk.
Experiencing death in the face of fear,
take the risk.
Experiencing self by removing your mask,
take the risk.
Experiencing the courage to be free,
take the risk.
Experiencing sex on a park jungle gym,
take the risk.
Experiencing a feel-good-hurt,
take the risk.
Experiencing sixty-five in first gear,
take the risk.
Experiencing hitting the wall,
take the risk.
Experiencing a natural high,
take the risk.
Experiencing taking a chance,
take the risk.
Experiencing, that’s what it’s all about —
. . . so, take the risk.
