Home Grown Terrorist- Texas...Ohio
Terrorists,
I guess no one ever showed you how to feel
with your eyes closed
that there are beauties that exist
in the world beyond skin
that a white hood does not make you pure
that a gun will not grant you glorification
we remember...
that her final breaths
were an innocent soul’s forgiving prayers
in Trump’s pestilence
that a mother’s cries can penetrate prejudice
that a foreign tongue can be transcending
in the Texas tumult of trampling and tyrants
in the sibling slaughter and sacrifice
Ohio...
there are hundreds of ppl fighting back against your bullets
with worthy words & weapons of wisdom
close your eyes and aim at assimilation

Tricky conversation. Terrorist arent ones not taught love many had been taught love but some where it got perversed its not a race or creed religion mant facets of terrorism exist. Like in the US the KKK is taught that its an all white racist group not how it was formed at all not that i agreed with all their facets to negin with but originally rave wasnt their attack they went after criminal but did it in a vigilante style again why i didnt agree then it got perversed into a white radical gtoup i can see where that line got blurred. Nazism one of the most insane groups to date to ever exist if followed by original design 98% of all following would be killed yet they follow. Muslim religion is widely vonfused as terrorism are Muslims evil no. Not even close but there are radical groups. Are all Christians good no as any mass group they develop radical groups. We use to much tv to learn or google searches and we find something that awws or catches the eye tugs at a string it must be real we felt it. We dont use our heads to facet out what is real anymore. Guns arent an issue how they are manufactured and obtained are an issue. So in short not that your wrong but wording can invite so many wrong notions. Mind heart and soul are given to us to help guide are way in life we get hung up on only exercising one when all three are required.

I have neither the courage nor the understanding to write such poems; and I'm invariably in slight awe of those who can - and most importantly - do.
I am so in sync with you. When I was your age I was listening to 'Four Dead in Ohio' - now it's 'Nine'. What the hell are we doing? How many will it take? If I were to name the number one evil in this country right now ( aside of fear ), it would be the NRA.
Thank you for sharing.
