365 poems, 365 Days (HOT OFF THE PRESS) 11/8/12


Saw the above picture today and it really hurt my heart. I also saw some die hard Romney supporters just completely do and say some off the wall things. It really made me sit back and think what kind of world are we in? When people say this re-election is the worst for America, it is not because of President Obama, it is because of the hatred of those who are not willing to see beyond themselves and their closed minds.

11/8/12

It's scary
to see
How deep the poison seeps
through the fabric of this Union
A poison so immune
That it no longer
diguises itself
No
it plasters its identity in the social media realm
claiming to be patriotic
But its not
Its
pure
hatred
KKK hoods
replaced with Twitter handles and hashtags
Burnt crosses of retweets
Lynching in the forms of groups "mobilizing" and creating campaigns to reverse
the "horrible" state of society
At 23 in 2012
I am supposed to be hopeful for the future
But no
I'm scared
