 I'd like to say how shocked and disappointed I am at the outcome of the presidential election, but this is the true face of America, the one I've known all my life. An America people denied, insulted, attacked me, called me mentally ill and delusional, including when I said Trump would be elected in 2016.

You cannot hide from the truth anymore, America. 
 America isn't hiding anymore 
 We’re all coming together … love you 😘 

My garden is planted 
All natural soil
Heirloom breeds 
Grown with pollution 
In air & waterways 
GMO’s in modern seeds
I’ve chosen to remove weeds 
When they come up
Share with community 
Even those who can’t see
The harm inflicted 

- Gross Humanity

It’s too much for many
Many have checked out completely
It takes a lot of, IDK 🤷🏻‍♀️ stamina 
To push for good 
And better in this world. 
My deepest respect to those 
Who keep going
Sincerely 
Maybe I’m wrong but 
With so much wrong 
I do still believe in goodness
Humans worth 🤔

Acidic nature 
Evil forced me to swallow
My power, for them
Soul sucking 
Sinuous dancing 
Resented betrayal 
Cut her body in pieces 
  Rainbow 🌈 DRAGONS 🐉 rise 
leachers swallowed
Embraced Iconic earth salts 
Combined with alkaline 
Not a freeze dried lemon drop. 
Squeezing hard gives little taste.
elicits nothing
Lemon zest. 
Limes prevent scurvy. 
I’m a salty one.
