A vintage ink drawing of the inner workings of the human brain

Gerrymander our minds

we gerrymander our minds
to connect the dots
a little here
a little like-minded there
so in the vast landscape
of cortex
we can see
in the big picture
who and what and where
we are
in this case
it’s not unconstitutional
to stay in
our own power
it’s self-protection
to keep ourselves
our selves
like all words
that can be misunderstood
misused
but this time
we can maybe
use them right
to right the clearly wrong
which in this case
is all that’s clearly right
when we unite ourselves
with all that’s left
