PerhapsPerhaps it's me,And I'm just naive,To put my faithIn humanity.Perhaps I cannot understand,The hatred of one's skin,When the reality isWe all bleed red.Perhaps I am blind,Because I see a child's innocence,And the relevanceOf being kind.Perhaps I'm deaf,For I don't trust their words.Divisive speakBefore the muted herd.Perhaps I am strange,For I do not change.I do not yieldTo corrupt or biased ways.Perhaps I am weak,I am lost in my mind.Contemplating endingsAs I struggle to provide.Perhaps to someI'm part of the problem.I embrace our differences,Which makes me an amalgam.Perhaps I will beA part of the solution.Listening to different thoughtsConstructing useful resolutions.Perhaps we have begunA silent revolution.A wake up call,An end to delusion.Perhaps we allHave a role to play.Come together, united,Never again to be led astray.Perhaps....-J.Simpson 18OCT21
