in a room of climate change activists
BY ISABELLA BORGESON

my family drowns again
on a microphone for strangers
gnarled white hands grab everywhere
we�?�¢??ll put you before the money pitch

on a microphone for strangers
I become expert of a tongue I do not speak
we�?�¢??ll put you before the money pitch
tell them how your mom almost died

I become expert of a tongue I do not speak
my gnarled white hands grab everywhere
I tell them how my mom almost died
& my family drowns again.
