There is no respect any more.
There are no safe havens.
No harbor where insults
can’t enter your tea cup.
Malicious digs seep through the key ways
of locked doors and satisfied minds
without consideration of insult
or prejudicial slander.
Do we embrace it, accept it,
make retaliation against it.
From tiny acorns giant oaks grow
but not without rain and sunlight.
Don’t listen
to such drivel.
Consider the source
and don’t give it a second thought.
