The Wall
I face
The
Wall
Sometimes,
But it isn’t
Facing
Me
Back.
My back
Is against
It,
But it is
Not
Against
Me.
No wall can
Block
Me
From
Being
Human
And
Making
My
Mark
On the
World.
No barrier
Shall keep
Me from
Fighting
For
My
Dream,
Our
Dream,
The
Dream.
Walls are made
To hold together
And
To build
Communities,
Lives,
Stories,
But they too
Are
Not
Meant
To keep
Things
Away,
Block
People
Out,
And
Reject
Compassion
For
All.
It is
Liberty
And
Justice
For
All,
Not
For
Some,
And not
Oppression
To
Come.
Our story
Is built
On a wall
Of
Solidarity
With
One
Another,
Not a wall
Of
Suffering
That
Leaves
Us
Angry.
Love thy
Neighbors,
And
Cherish
Them
Too,
The world
Is filled
With
Walls,
But
Wallpapers
Too.
Design
A
World
Of
Joy,
Love,
And
Embrace,
Because you never
Know
When those
Things will be
Tested,
And you will
Have
To
Ace
It.
