On Lactose Intolerance
Gotta take a pill
So I can eat
Another meal
But when I take
Another pill
It creates
Another bill
Form:
Each shoe,
a life He knew,
buds of His olive tree-
next time perhaps,it could be you..
or me !

Prejudice a sign of intolerance.
Hate a sign of failure.
Peace a sign of happiness.

and it dawns on me
while straightness
aims for conformity
it seems to clutter
people's brains
with madeup rules of
shoulds and musts
that snowball
spitefully into
rampant
venomous
chaos

Notre Dame
now maimed
terror's imprint
hate proclaimed
Notre Dame
ravaged, lame
intolerance aflame
for shame, for shame
Notre Dame
great holy name
fearful to blame
~ to the world inflame
Not for the ND contest
In times of discord and debauchery
the need to tell the whole world the truth
yet who knows what is truth today
the powers to be, a mask
that of intolerance
to manipulate
each living day
coached to be
passive
dumb.

May we be blessed to understand…
In trying to make our world great…
It does not take bravery…or fortitude…
or gallantry…to hate…
But in a world where intolerance,
hatred and hostility are combined…
sometimes in the face of all our differences
It takes courage…to be kind.
United stand together hand in hand,
Intolerance real boon,
We move heaven and earth !

An infant death of thought!
Lives a feeble mind'
Like deception of perception,
But intolerance is bad reception'
the intensity of the physical,
And the perceptual effect'
Lives you victimized and helpless,
Because a choices of an individual'
Aligned with a given idea..!!!!
In my little garden
I will sow seeds of
compassion and understanding.
I will nourish these seeds
with persistence and trust.
I know that my garden will
grow slowly, and may need to
have the weeds of intolerance and
greed , plucked out by their roots.
But peace, when it comes,
will be a harvest of joy.
Insulting As it can be

My Declaration of Humanity
I declare, to all humans, to hold up the rights given each soul on their creation.
The rights of inherent worth, love, and forgiveness.
I deny hate, intolerance, and greed.
Perfect? No.
I am not.
I am Dan, and I make this declaration under the eyes of God.
One small thing-
Will you do the same?
...In fact it seems that some intolerance
actually does make a good deal of sense,
it serves to drive evil out of our space,
allows us to live a life somewhat safe.
If we were to tolerate everything
then life would be short, and terrifying,
and though the very thought might leave some cold,
intolerance, sometimes, plays a useful role.
In this day and age of banning books
I’m grateful for all the books in the world…
every book from A to Z
and glad that there was one president
who totally agrees with me…
Lyndon Johnson understood the importance of books
and came to their defense…
When he said:
Books and ideas are the most effective weapons
against intolerance…and ignorance
I hear snapping jaws of intolerance
and hatred, dripping with bile of
irrational anger: stoked, stroked, fired
by pseudojournalists and narrow-minded
commentators spinning fabrications
like deadly spiders in darkened holes,
each web of deceit mending the false
strands, repeatedly sheared by truth,
how dare they take the sacred name
of painted Patriots protesting.
DIVORCE
Developing deep differences disturbing mutual dependence.
Impatience , intolerance , irritation.
Violation of valuable vows.
Oaths taken overall obsolete : Offensive action on obstinacy.
Romance rotten : Ready to rescind relationship wishing relief.
Continuous complaint not to compromise in conjugal life.
Ending in divorce.
Intolerance, Our Downfall

Hatred has its finger,
On each trigger pull.
Intolerance abounds,
And man’s heart seems full.
It’s true guns kill,
But the heart is the cause.
This will never be fixed,
By enacting more laws.
Proverbs 16:24
Pleasant words [are as] an honeycomb, sweet to the soul,
And health to the bones.
I remember this word, when it was a veritable curse;
It spoke of actions, beliefs, feelings and ideas that were
reprehensible and indefensible, only worthy of our condemnation
I remember when it was a vile and shameful descriptor;
It was synonymous for ignorance, hate, injustice, inhumanity
It was abhorrent, it was unforgivable, it was.....intolerable
Intolerance..... what has become of you?
Tolerance--
With All The Hippies
And Hill-Billies On
The Blooming Fringes
Of All Our Thoughts...
Soft And Warm,
Contrary To Hope...
Here And There...
Tolerance To
Cope...
Clear Your Intolerance
To Yourselves,
Like A Log Jam
In The Flowing
Heart.
Your Own Thoughts.
Your Own Logs.
Well, To At Least
Tolerate My Own,
You Know...

Say, have you seen Charity
She hideth I know not where?
I search for her sweet song of love,
Have you seen her pretty face?
I have been searching every place.
Look! see that dark corner there,
Yonder stands Intolerance and
His brothers Greed and Envy-
There-is that their sister Malice
peering through that curtained window?
Compassion too has disappeared-
perhaps he dances some far off
forest glen- with Charity?
What I like is education,
what I hate is pride.
I like being my self because,
am smart,
I pledge,
I fight,
I stand against,
abuse,
intolerance,
and harassment.
I will fight for our rights,
I will not stay silent in the faces,
of teachers and learners.
What we need,
and want is education,
but starting from now on.
I will work together with my,
teachers to create more exclusive,
schools for all
if bombs fall on a
far off place can CNN
make us feel the pain
woman lies about
her color do we color
her in black and white
man massacres nine
innocent souls yet some care
more about burnt flag
Charley Cotton blames
the dead for dying because
they didn't want to kill
a flag flies above
intolerance lives below
hate lives between them
emancipation
reshaped a nation don't fly
stars and bars no more
“What is there to say? They are my friends. I would do it again, over and over — for I hate cruelty and intolerance.” Oskar Schlinder
LOST IN A SEA OF WAR
daringly intrepid,
dazzlingly, dizzily
protecting the poor,
the unarmed, the kids,
those lost in a sea
of war — Schindler
and his musical score,
outscoring the hate
that seemingly won’t abate
but for God steps into
the shoes of man
