Yes sir, Yes mam
I am entitled to my opinions.
Don’t bend my ears
with your religious rants
or your political pontificating.
Trying to bully me into a corner
with your absolutely right
will only cause me to bare my claws.
I remained quiet while you
gave me every opinion
inside your narrow minded brains,
but my stomach can no longer tolerate
your insidious bile wrapped in
stained glass divine interpretation.
Cease badgering me with your convictions
that only create a divide love cannot cross.
I have my opinions and you are only solidifying
my faith they will never change.

stained glass divine interpretation...
Woohoo! Tell it like it is, girl!
stained glass divine interpretation.
Strong words, strong feeling to this piece--well done!!
my faith"...
Loved every bit of this! This reads to me so much more than about the election (although, it certainly stirs the pot) but of individuals everywhere who won't stop until you agree with them! I have my opinions and beliefs, but I certainly allow others to have theirs, even my children, even when it bothers me. I tell them to keep an open ear and keep thinking, keep learning. Head in the sand is never good..
Well said!
