They say
that we look alike
That our
eyes share fire if not colour
That our
feet are made for marches
Our hearts
have weathered darkness
That our
wrinkles come from smiling
And our
calluses from jiving
But I’ve
never felt more like you
Until I ran
through a sea of indifference
And feigned
ignorance
After a
woman fleeing her husband
Statistics
slipping from his clenched fists
