TENDERIZED FEAR…
It’s not that I am not afraid,
It’s just that I am not scared
We shall not overcome…
For the liberated sufferer
Knows that God defeats all evil:
Consummating victory…
And the only thing to be
Afraid of is that it may not be
Realized that there is no victory
Independent of faithful battle…
I’m not afraid, just scared
That some may forget that we are
Children of the Exodus…
Surviving heirs of those Ancestors
Who were welled acquainted
With suffering pandemonium
And that this present pandemic scare
Will be overcome…
And we can get back to the struggle
Against injustice promoting distancing
Social and economic inequalities
Spanning our ethnic and gender categories...
