First, blood lines do not make us family.
Caring, compassion, loving souls
bond us into chosen family.
Empathy, understanding, listening, reaching out to other souls do.
Numbers of deaths become heart wrenching
as one loses a loved one to disease, disaster, accident.
IS it what it is? NO.
When our friends, now family, are hurt,
bleeding, slandered, abused, mocked, dying–
I feel it, carry it with them.
It is NOT “it is what it is.”
Lives destroyed, murdered for skin color,
for loving without discrimination as to sex,
cannot acquiesce to “it is what it is.”
Females exploited, repressed and ruled by patriarchy
cannot be discounted because “it is what it is.”
IS it what it is? NO.
WE the people, in order to form a more perfect union…“
will no longer accept “It is what it is.”
We will resist, we will rise for and with each other,
a union of souls for all humanity.

FOR PEACE AND LOVE
I’ve NEVER liked that saying. Now, even less. xoA ❤
