"Be polite and professional, but stand up for yourself when necessary - default to courtesy while avoiding passivity that enables disrespect. Take the high road, yet address harmful behavior directly and politely, saying 'please don't speak to me that way' or 'those remarks were hurtful and unjustified.' Assume good intent initially, but be firm and fair in establishing your boundaries. Give others the opportunity to recognize and adjust their conduct, promoting mutual respect."

jesus was born
a palestinian child
where there’s no Room
for the meek and the mild
... and in bethlehem still
to this day, lambs are born
to cries of “no Room!”
and Puritanical scorn ...

their fates are the same—
the slouching Beast mauls them
and WE have no shame:
“who’s to blame?”
