No More Borders

No more borders
No closed gates 
Everyone welcome; everyone come 

It doesn't matter what you've done,
or what you believe; you will be
received.

We will take care of you, regardless
of the cost; not to mention our loss.

Evil's vail shall be lifted, and come 
upon us quickly.  Violence, corruption,
greed and contempt; as food they eat,
and bring to our streets.

How much clearer can they state, their
hate?  What will it take for us to awake?

A very timely poem on the present dilemma of governments regarding supposed refugees (which are the real ones and which are not.)
