Obama, and Driving


I got my driver's license
for the first time, in '09
welcoming thirty-two
wuthering past wasilla

I got shotgun inside this 
vehicle for change, strange
figure in the photo 
captures a modern era

origin: 
neither African
nor American
but born in Yeswecan

height:
entering from the front
eating at the table
eclipsing the glass ceiling

weight:
palpable

eyes:
rose-colored

DOB:
1-20-09

Have you considered publishing these? This one is awesome. Reminds me of Gwendolyn Brooks' style.
