Let Us Be Gay!

a call to deconstruction and to raise the banner of solidarity

Domination of religion and politics
is the Leviathan
rearing its head
its lifeblood is power and control

A vicious predator
stalking and terrorizing
the innocent
specifically selected
as pawns and prey

Illusions and smokescreens
the thinly veiled guise
the sole intent
is an insidious warfare
poisoning our waters
with dissension, chaos and animosity
conceived from corruption, greed and power
evil deeds flourish

Who wants to join with hatred and hurting innocents?

Some always will

We have been told what God says
Let the Divine speak without assistance
Is not the Divine in you?
Do you dare think for yourself?
Exercise your own intellect
Is your heart truly free
or are you tethered to lies?
