Why steal from them if they give us everything

Why terrorize them if they kept us safe since birth
Why are they  not safe even when in their homes

Why do we not realize that it is our turn
Our turn to take care of them
Our turn to stop abusing them
Our turn to say no to their killings

Our turn to be urged to take charge
Be urged to protect the kind that gave you life
Be urged to be a good example for your son or pals
Be urged not leave a void in someone's heart

Let us protect them, let us love them
They are our mothers, our sisters

You don't have to know the second theory of thermodynamics in physics to serve. You only need a heart full of grace and a soul generated by love" -Martin Luther King Jr.
