AQUIRING SIGNAL
by Joanna Gilman Hyde
The Hawk Living Room 3:30pm
hook Me up
to My Members of Silver & Gold
My Robotic Arms
of The West
to carry Your Instruction
when a Reshma Begum emerges
in Pink & Violet —
tell Me what to say:
Say It, Damn It, Say It —
why has It taken the deaths
of one thousand, one hundred
Eastern Garment Workers
to force a call
to God?
