We roasted the anger peppers,
so hot, so very very hot
spit flew off our tongues.
We fed the anger flames
yelling with open throat
to wildfires for justice.
We felt the electricity
of lightning and static charge
surround the fear of outages.
We nibbled at that pepper,
slow bites of what became so burning—
when the tears began to fall.
Tricia Knoll shares the anger progressives have felt over the T administration for months on end. After the Senate vote, some tears began to fall.
