Double EdgedA Poem by unclecharlieWe've all read the words that have torn many apart And didn't care like we never had a heart Just sat back as they were covered with dirt Never thinking about how much it hurt We've passed judgement and moved along As if in life we'd never done wrong Acting like our asses are cover in gold Then cried as we watched another unfold With a difference to many that seemed clear This to us was someone that's near So for them we are willing to push things aside And to believe that everyone else has lied If others should want to discuss the facts Those are the ones we will attack And with the others we'll always fight Their family or friends they had to have done right Yet we try to say everyone should be treated the same Human Double standards are such a shame This should be easy for all of us to get Even if in Our Ivory tower is where we think we sit!
