Poem
the great debate is once again upon us
 let the augments begin
the pro and cons list is drawn up 
        so let’s argue
on who is wrong and who is right
  
   so when both side cases are answered for
and they tally up the scores
there are no real winners
                                   only losers
neither place is one we need to be

 united is a word that needs 
                                         to remain free
so lets not sit on the left 
                                       or the right
it’s in the middle which seems  
     the right place to be

let’s not forget the tragedies
             from the past
and let the future begin now

keep the past inside history books
           inside our minds
       within the stories told

from generation to generation
    it needs to remain true
       to keep the spirit alive
a sprit that has survived
                                     centuries
      it should never be lost
                    to the great expense

it was also born out of hardship
         and  a will to survive
to form an identity
                        mate ship 
                  and national pride 

as the song goes:
   “we are one, and we are many” 

once the waterhole had poison water
now the pen flows with poison ink
and many angry fingers type on twitter feeds
it’s a place where ignorance is king
                         and the bigots song does sing

do we really need this
                                        to unite

so now
two fires are now burning
and they are burring
                          out of control
 we need to respect both fires 
  for respect goes both ways

not towards
         which fire
                  is burning 
                            the brightest

                                      __________________________
