I Am Not Offended by........

I am not offended by seeing Gay people kiss on the street
but by kids and Seniors not having enough food to eat

I am not offended by a crazy MTG tweet
but by homeless people using concrete as their hotel suite

I am not offended by another Trump speech bc he is a bore
but by Putin's illegal war

i am not offended by Drag Queen performance art
but by another DeSantis racist and homophobic verbal fart

I am not offended by....

Excellent write. I am appalled by the state of our human race. You seem to have your values in order. Good for you. If we all practiced a bit of compassion for one another� instead of spewing hate� well we might survive. Thanks for sharing.

The crazy thing about it is the some of these people spewing hate wear crosses around their necks and claim to love Jesus and be "Christians". Nowhere in the 400 plus pages of The New Testament does it say "hate your neighbor". Thanks for your kind word and for reading this poem.
