A World That Has Changed
The world is not the same
As it was long ago
It has gone through great change
And rightly so
Technology has evolved
And so has mankind
Yet, some have resolved
To stay left behind
They shout from the back
Hate words like "queer"
You must take solace in the fact
That one day, they'll disappear
Hiding behind the Bible
They spout their accusations
But why believe such libel
When religion has also gone through transformation
So accept your sisters and brothers
Because gay is not a crime
And those who believe we should not love one another
Will disappear in the sands of time

people should be treated with respect
sexual orientation doesn't determine or define a person
we are all equal
people need to understand overall that there is always a level of respect
important to address the issue of discrimination
Simple and poignant, beautiful poem. I like that this poem points out what is wrong, but has an overall feel that what is right will prevail.
