What shows
how little
we know?
What can be is
oft far less than
what we expect.
What is now
has never been
what it was.

Free speech or censorship?
Words denied,
what will you accept?
Meaning or moral,
the mistake of it all, to
resist, refrain from, even
deny the call.
Tempers explode, ideals persist,
not once for a moment do the
culprits see the gist
of the message.
Minds blocked by hate, after
the fact, peace is erased
as simple as that.
