Shame on them

 

I have no wish to be gay

no wish to be black

or neither white

but I do wish to relate

with love, understanding, compassion.

 

God’s universe created me with a team purpose,

to share the uniqueness, beauty,

of what is a Boricua, Puerto Rican, Taino, Africano.

 

Exactly what or who I’m,

as you are proud of what or who you are,

sharing the uniqueness, beauty,

your team’s purpose.

 

We come from the same supplier

spirits painted by the brush of God’s imagination,

wrapped in different art frames,

released, shipped to the planet.

 

As I walked the streets of Main, Niagara, Elmwood and Allen,

I see God’s creativity at work,

a celebration,

a diversity,

a mosaic of colorful spirits,

enjoying their journey’s contribution,

a divine purpose. 

 

How dare they!
