I was just browsing and found this, and I'm glad I did. It's such a shame that we're divided by race, and to me teaching critical race theory isn't helping. It's just transferring the hatred from one group to another. School children don't need to be subjected to this teaching. They usually can figure things out for themselves. They don't need to be burdened with feelings of guilt of victimhood. Excellent work with your rhyme, and an excellent choice of artwork. Yes, we are our own enemy. judi

I couldn't agree more We have the same rubbish happening here in Australia not allowed to call girls and boys Wife husband male female etc according to some BE academics who wouldn't know a bloody thing . We seemed to be ruled by the loud minority lately Same with our black indiginous people they seem to create the racism etc
I want to from the Politically Incorrect Party To stop this rot wonder how many would join I think I would be surprised Woke Go away
A well written poem good one
Cheers Chris

Comment from Patty Palmer
This is well written and makes a lot of sense. Our world changed over night and it gets worse with each passing day. I hope something happens before we are so off track that we can't ever find our way back. What I don't understand is why we've not heard the word IMPEACH? They started impeachment for Donald Trump before he even took office and had done nothing wrong. Within a day Biden started throwing us under the bus.

Comment from Susan Newell
Excellent in thoughts and verse. People have to wake up to this scourge that is threatening to rip us apart and tear us down.
One tweak:
so has the rules. ==> have

Any praise was well earned!
Comment from WriterHeather
Absolutely! 100% agree! I don't understand why the left is working so hard to divide us and convince us all that white people are inherently racist. This is not what we should be teaching children. Children don't see color and we're trying to teach then to do so from a young age! Sounds like the 1800s to me. Excellent job! You should be very proud of this poem

Comment from Sally Law
Thank you so much, mystery poet. I'd rather go back to sleep too. Woke to a horrid life of the worst stuff since WW2 actually. I can't believe what these hateful people are getting away with it and they are THE most racist of them all. Worse is what is not being said, called out and addressed, arrested, and prosecuted by our leaders and authorities. Sick!
Sending you my best today as always. I hope we get to cast a vote here. Good luck in the contest,

Comment from Jannypan (Jan)
You did a great job with your contest entry, Mystery Author. The required words fit in -perfectly in your words of truth. Your rhymes are super, there's good flow, and your message stands above anything else. Yes, it's a time of division that doesn't have to be. We all share this planet and need to work together to solve problems that concern all of the people, but in a positive way. Your picture is perfect. Best wishes.
Thanks for sharing.
Respectfully, Jan
