A Frame in Time

once on a *junket to a place afar, I
found an *exhibition under the stars
it was all *sketch and lore as if a key
to a locked *door

and our guide, with *care in voice and grace
on his face, set to *introduce art pieces
for we were to unlock the truth in minds
of this fancy *flock

but, a *wreck of dreams, and my hopes were
stillborn, since one frame held a form twisted
and torn, a slave in chains, and I heard the ring
of *discrimination's sting

yet, this pain so deeply stored must open hearts,
minds, and doors, just to show the darkness
and scars, if only to prove that, like time,
art, too, should always move.
