"Get Up, Stand Up"
Beck Duffield
Your fluffy little memes
Catchy little phrases
Saccharine little sentiments
Short, dismissive wishes
Your "too blessed to be stressed"
Toxic positivity
Thoughts and prayers
To fictional deities
Who are love but give none
Who could save but never do
Your gratitude journaling
On the burnt pages Of our sanity And safety
Is not
Fucking Helping.
You can't march
If you're too busy
Deluding yourself
On your knees.

If being anti-predator makes me look anti-men, that’s a problem to take up with men, not me.

“The Line” 
Beck Duffield

He’s going to tell you you’re special 
And you are 
But not to him. 
You’re just another 
In a long litany of vulnerable women 
He stuffs into the black hole 
Of his greed,
Pushing the cycles
Of gain and guilt and gain and guilt,
But not enough guilt to stop it,
Only enough to make him seek succor 
From your beautiful soul. 
The ability to see your value
Is a common quality
The desire for your attention 
Isn’t rare 
Stop spending time in the mouths of dragons 
Just to feel some warmth.

This is the man who should be running our country? He literally used the word “hate.” How much more evidence do you need that this man is a depraved Nazi?

“The Fruited Plain” #poetry #poetrycommunity #america

An eight-year-old me watched fireworks with awe,
Cried with Lee Greenwood,
Asked God to bless America. 

A twelve-year-old me swore to protect freedom
For everyone 
But women.

A fourteen-year-old me was grounded 
For kissing 
A Black boy. 

Sixteen-year-old me wondered why 
God hated her 
For existing.

Eighteen-year-old me saw Columbine and 9/11
And only one 
Spurring a response. 

Nineteen-year-old me didn’t understand why she was wrong 
To hang out 
With all the queers.

Twenty-three-year-old me drove with the windows down 
And a gun 
Under the seat. 

Twenty-five-year-old me wanted a government 
That left me 
Alone.

Twenty-nine-year-old me went to law school 
And was actually 
Educated. 

Thirty-year-old me was a brand new mother 
Desperate for support 
That wasn’t coming. 

Thirty-three-year-old me had two postgrad degrees and a job.
It wasn’t 
Enough. 

Thirty-eight-year-old me watched the capital be overrun 
While isolating  
In surgical mask.

Forty-two-year-old me watches my neighbors killed and arrested 
For loving America 
And being brown.

Forty-three-year-old me will arrive soon, still waiting for her shot 
To exist 
Without America. 

Eight-year-old me watched fireworks,
And cried with Lee Greenwood, 
And asked God to bless America, 
And that God listened. 
That vengeful, genocidal, jealous God listened,
And he blessed America 
With the kind of hate 
Only a deity could muster. 

And whatever age I was,
From eight to forty-three,
America and her god 
Were never worthy of my blessing.

This. Is. Theocracy. There is NO REASON a government agency should be calling faith in a deity a “necessary precondition of freedom.” They’re positioning any non-Christian as an enemy of the state. THIS IS WHAT FASCISM LOOKS LIKE, YOU CULT ADDLED DUMBASSES!

“Social Kondo” #poetry #poems #poets #poetrycommunity
“Social Kondo”
Beck Duffield 

Neat little boxes 
All in a row 
Perfectly constructed 
Spots for things to go 
Cuz everyone’s an archetype 
Around a central theme 
Varied folk of every stripe 
An organizer’s dream 
You go here and you go there 
Lay secrets on the table 
My files and heart and head are spared 
When everyone’s a label 
That’s a friend and that’s a fuck 
The assholes and the sweet 
The easiest always label themselves 
Keep categories neat 
But complicated people 
Come in complicated shapes 
To complicate my boxes
And ruin my escapes 
I won’t have the drama 
And I won’t fawn or chase 
My boxes won’t be big enough 
For me to hold the space 
But you deserve compassion 
And room to rise above 
The tiny little boxes
In which I pack my love.

This is an important message. For those of you who don’t know, I used to be a Catholic conservative. I admit that loudly because I want to demonstrate that it’s never too late to change. Even the deepest roots can be cut. You can free yourself from oppression. #dobetter #deconstruct

“For My Husband, Christopher” 
Beck Duffield

For a woman who prides herself 
On her command of words,
I’ve been remiss in using them
To tell you,
To remind you 
Of the promises I made so long ago,
The promises I make every day:
To stand by your side 
Until I can no longer stand;
To hold your hand
Until my hands can no longer hold;
To fight for you 
With every breath I have;
And to honor you 
With every word I speak,
Every word I write;
To reassure you 
That you will never be alone again, 
Never 
In your whole life 
Not if I can help it.
I am a lot of things 
To a lot of people,
I hope to be more 
To more.
However, 
Something I will always be,
Better than anything I will ever be,
Something I will call myself
Until the day I die,
The most proud title I will ever claim 
And everything I can ever give because of it
Is Yours.

“Teeny Weenie Microman” 
Beck Duffield 

He’s just a tiny little president 
Of a wee stretch of land 
On an itty bitty planet 
In a very small sky 
One of a zillion different galaxies 
In a very big world 
He’s just a tiny little president 
Just a blip in time 
Just an teeny weenie microman
Whose power is small and fading.
His money won’t hold forever.
His people fall away 
The stars will outlast him by millennia
Like we do every day.
