DEFENDING THE PEN: December 2023

Mural of War (1896), by Gari Melchers

My Christmas Poem

Peace was the promise

but we defy

we lie

spread the hate

cause unrest

after all, we’re right

you’re wrong

and have to go

we’re superior

so you should die

you’re different

not like us

we‘re god’s perfection

how dare you question

our word, our knowledge

for what’s right for you

we know best

so give it a rest

genocide is an option

if you refuse to comply

after all, we’re the chosen

you’re the lie!

oh, and Merry Christmas

in keeping with the season!

Can anyone explain to me the reason why?
