Double Down, Not Across
A song sung by foreign tongue and hatred sparked.
Vision lost of humanity’s heart gives me pause and I...
Every day see the ways and my soul aches at the div.
Regardless of English, Spanish, or Farci
Suspicion and derision shouldn’t be what a heart sees.
Instead of always needing war, of finding, based on language, an anti
Oppositional and defiant against a step you need to
Newly discover this world you forgot was given all when set in motion.
Unlike engineless plane, we can pull up
Not held by history, or even present, are we
Infect, then, with acceptance, peace, in your area
To begin the healing and the growth, to not remain static
Yes, time to rise, to learn, that though it sounds strange, it is merely a brother calling things by a different name
