Election Results
Trump wins I lose
Dark days Dark moons
Pale faces fill the room
Heads down bases covered white sheets hover We look up and only see eyes staring at us
With hateful expressions filling the room with despicable suggestions
We say love one another they say love one kind We say all lives matter they say Life is white no shades of gray or colors that fade only one kind matters
We see beauty they see ugliness we try to get the world to see the beauty too but the pain from years prior clouds peoples mind as it did before
Trump wins we all lose what does it say that the world puts his face on a country

Election results can not be known in advance - it is unfortunate we should have to love those who don't love us but for me that is the only way forward :-)
excellent poem again, written with passion :-)
