A Human Tale


A dolphin strangled in a fishing net.

Americans nationwide cry,

Give money, protest, call for the government to do something.

Millions of children starving to death every day, naked and homeless.

No American sees or cares.

They are too busy watching A Dolphin Tale.

I'm a teen. I'm a Christian. I find great beauty and great ugliness in this world. I hope to make it an iota prettier with my existence.
