Democracy Poem by Morgan Michaels

Democracy



'Wait a minute', she said,
like it was my fault,
'you mean the Titanic was REAL? '

My attention snapped open like a fan.
The question made me queasy.
I could feel her fingernails
digging into my arm.

'Well, I thought it was', I shrugged,
'but, then, maybe it wasn't.'
