Both Sides-isms

Tonight
my heart is too
broken
to rhyme.
Too
broken
to be anything other than
earnest.
Tonight
children are cold
and hungry
and the poorest of the poor.
You did not care.
And what’s worse?
You actively
hurt
them
more.
Your choices
made things worse.
Either because you stayed quiet.
Or supported the bad guys.
There are two sides to every issue.
Sure.
But if you are on the side that makes things worse for kids.
You.
Are.
Wrong.
