My resolve has been tested as
this country has segregated
itself due to conflicting views,
speculated opinions and race

The PALPABLE DISCORD
shakes me beyond speech,
yet I am reluctantly asked
to render my idle thoughts

The divide widens daily
as the rhetoric conflict
escalates to childlike spats
resolving no tangible issues

Remain mindful to be clear
and levelheaded with regard
to all things... all things, albeit
large or small in detail.
