Calliopsis

A thousand times
And another thousand times,
Still you will be my calliopsis,
My calico,
My callaloo,
And my calla lily.

.... hates, by Boliji Ramos
Within… Around… Abound… The Hate Speech Law! And just like the disjointed clouds in the sky, They come in different degrees and pedigrees!
There is the hate From the expressionists of extremism! The hate From the expressionists of hypocrisy! And the hate From the expressionists of ignorance!
To drop atomic missiles in Hiroshima Without S.E.P.E.R.A.T.I.N.G The rebels from the vulnerables, In an attempt to curtail the Great War Is still hate! This is the unpleasantness of extremism.
To remain mute at the altar of smother Where the Jews are slaughtered For their supposed stinking creed, And the Christians are pampered For their assumed holy breed Is still hate! This is the danger of hypocrisy.
To issue a damning fatwa or syllogism Without foundational knowledge Or at least, a thorough scholarly voyage Or at least, a consultation with experts On a matter that requires expertise Is still hate! This is the cacophony of ignorance.
There is the hate From the expressionists of ignorance— Those who are issue-myopic, Yet they have the mouths of prophets of doom They don’t know, they won’t ask, but they spit poisons! There is the hate From the expressionists of extremism— Those who would not sort out The obvious good from the bad. To them, the end justifies the inglorious means! And there is the hate From the expressionists of hypocrisy— Those whose ardent opinion on the law Is based on who sponsored the Bill, Is based on their ethnic and political affiliations!
When we throw A.W.A.Y The baby with the sewage water, We throw away a nation with its problems! And we throw away our nation with its problems, We become hermits of our own malicious making, Wandering the terrains of other people’s land

Beautiful flower, my friend. May it bloom for many years..
Well, with police departments being 'defunded' and disbanded from coast to coast, get ready for total anarchy...
