Mr. republican man I really don’t like your plans
Women will suffer and die in your legislative hands
You’re free to believe what you like, but not to force those beliefs on others…
It’s simply none of your business what we do with our bodies or under the covers.
Luckily for us your time of hatred and oppression will soon be ending…
As new diverse generations come to power our progression is pending.

In a moment of vulnerability, you ventured where you knew you were unwelcome…
Her discomfort for your pleasure was a trade you were willing to make…
You malign her now… decades later …because it no longer serves your interests to tell the truth.
She’s gone! It was the last in a long line of trespasses you would make against her…
The one betrayal she could not bring herself to forgive.
Free from the ugliness she’s moved on to happiness and you can’t stand it!
So even now… after all these years…you’re still sprinkling your poison wherever you think it might take seed.
But it changes nothing…She’s still gone and living her best life without you in it.
Your behavior was and always will be what was unforgivable.

Darkness falls early on this the eve of yet another contentious election in America…
The clouds loom heavy as the cold breeze whispers foreboding of a potentially ominous outcome…
Yet there are patches of pristine bright blue sky that echo the hope that remains in my heart…
My mind races with the kind of clarity that comes from a recent cleansing rain…
My insides churn and I shiver from the cold and brutal ugliness being screamed from pulpits and broadcast daily from media masquerading as news
This could be a beginning, or an end, or the beginning of the end of life as we have known it.
The rustling has quieted… the stillness and silence is deafening.
This night will be long…
The days ahead perilous…
Democracy is fragile we must vote like our lives depend on protecting it because they do.
