I Am Anaya Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

Those Who Irk Poetry Contest  N/A  Anime on Pinecrest

Hypocrisy is to claim to know and follow certain beliefs but to behave in a way that counteracts those beliefs. Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar.  

Let he who is without fault throw the first stone—Jesus Holy Christ

Those Who Irk

Those who make ethnic boxes on forms we must check.
Who of those get lost in life's shuffle who holds the deck?
Irk! It's insanity, those who think Jesus loves them most.
Long live humanity—Armenia was the first Christian host!
There are those who use Christianity to end their rant.  
They use it only to put forth their political slant.
Those who blame the government and stir up a fuss.
Weren’t they taught early on the government is us?
Those who say they're sorry but show no remorse.
Then do the same things while they ride their high horse.

Rico Leffanta February 28, 2022 at 10:38 AM The DNA of many Americans confirm we are indeed a melting pot, especially those whose ancestors arrived in the 1600s when white women were few and far between. But God's instruction to, "multiply and replenish the earth" has resulted in global diversity. Enjoyed!
