Air is laden with toxins
of which we do not speak
You have deemed me evil
and I wear garlic to mock
your vampire ways –
Both missing the essence –
that our souls are indigo –
deep and true, yearning
for a rich connection.

This rancor is sad, but we can build more empathy, if we all work together. We can Do Better.

The current diviseness is hard to fathom. Hating other people is not a happy place to be.

Amen to that! My husband and I were talking about how hate only ends up hurting the one holding it.
