What About That Flag
On your bedroom wall hangs your
community flag. Hanging from your porch
is your community flag. Atop the pole in
your front yard flies your community flag.
On walls in bedrooms hang red, black,
and green flag. From porches hang rainbow-
colored flags. Atop a pole in front yards
the red, white, and blue flags wave.
On backs of children’s bikes, the pirate
flag flies. On the back of white men’s Ford
F-150 the Confederate flag flies. Under
Old Glory some black men take a knee.
