not-Universal Yang equals
not-Unitarian Yin
Sanctuary,
expecting to be greeted
by visions
of familiar spiritual apartheid.

But I am not.

repugnant racist republican reviled - rickettsia re:itch ruler.

Tribute to fallen Stars (Ras Kimono)

Stars are born, they are made
They are born to shine
Stars come and brighten our dark skies
Stars lighten mood in bad times
They bring joy to the mood in good times
