Our House of Personality

Your foundation is no different than that of your neighbors,

    ground firmly into the cool of the Earth with no concern

    for those who dwell above you.

Life of a Peasant

By Sam Colombo

I want to leave

I want to die

but what will happen to my family?

I wasn’t expecting Trump to win,

The way the media was talking.
