Bless Your Heart

Don’t clutch your pearls
mercy be
The real cowardly you
is who I see
You talk a big game
from behind a tree
When given a chance
you burrow like a beach flea
“Don’t talk politics,
that’s not me”
It’s just a ruse
you’re made of apathy
You can’t be a victim
if you don’t disagree
With the people fighting
to make us all free
To say I’m horrified by you
is not hyperbole
