Hatred Rising (Vote Anyway) Poem by Barry Middleton

Hatred Rising (Vote Anyway)



they wear no war paint
they only hail with slogans
yet two sides are at war

it's not a bumper sticker year
in the battleground states
all swear they are independent

no one wants to talk about it
a fight might break out
blue and red like gang colors

sadly it has come to this
I see fire and bullets and blood
again I see hatred rising
