The Tool
You see eyes narrowed
a man seething
heaving ugly words scarring
a mess, when he
is just a child wielding weapons
he wasn't meant to swing,
untrained to the disciplined,
patient eye, waiting
for you to be the parent, say
no
He rampages through your soul
because you are as weak
as the toddler. Accept
he needs love
just like you desire, because
he can love you too
if you don't hold so tight
to your own
mortalitty.
Before you press that cancel,
remember
we are all human.

Just saying, cancel culture and telling people what they can or cannot say is between facist and dystopian. It takes a community to help the ignorant catch up to speed, if you don't shame the way you feel and love the way you can to help others who might seem threatening but can be easy to know in kind if you try.
I acknowledge, a few are untrainable. But we must find ways to co-exist.
