Bigotry
Bigotry's ubiquitous;
its roots entangled in time.
And as intolerance grows,
anxieties start to climb.
Using angry, hurtful rants;
racists verbalize their fears.
And sneer, as innocence cries;
unmoved by the flow of tears.
Strong minds recruit weaker minds;
offering friendship as bait.
And partial truths, target youth;
while preaching doctrines of hate.
Bullies quickly become trapped;
in a web of pain and vice.
For a lifetime of hatred;
inflicts a terrible price.
