Vows

We live in a world of hate.
Where little orange men cannot lead but rather dictate.

Where hooded babies bang on black cop shields.
Where the peaceful fall before torches and wooden swords Evil wields.

Where Nazis are rebranded and terrorists are renamed.
Where people of color and fighters for peace are defamed.

This is not the world I want my children to live in.
This is not the world I want anyone I love to live in.

This is not the world created back then.
This is one corrupted by Satan and men.

This country where Evil no longer hides its face in shame.
But rather gloats and preens in its fame.

Where history repeats madness again.
And girls and boys of palest pallor pose as women and men.

This speaks not to age but maturity.
This is blind hatred most assuredly.

We must stand tall in the face of those that would gleefully see us dead.
Against their twisted logic I will hold up my head.

I will show our children that God created a rainbow of men, not a blank world of white.
That we all bleed red when we fight.

That tan skin, woolen hair, accented words and culture rooted in faith and tradition isn't a sin.
We ALL deserve to be here. So, Let's Begin.
