It does not matter the color of faces, <br />Presented to represent a window dressed progress. <br />It does not matter the facts or the proof of that. <br /> <br />It does not matter which places showcase, <br />A tolerance for diversity... <br />With this deception of it perceived. <br /> <br />What matters today, <br />Is the way delusion and hypocrisy is displayed. <br />With a blocking to stop progress, <br />Done in a meaningful and accepted way... <br />By those who know they will and can keep controlled, <br />Limitation and its kept performance to go unnoticed. <br /> <br />'You 'always' managed to say something offensive.' <br /> <br />~Someone has to defend the truth. <br />And the little of it that is being produced, <br />By those welcoming the disappearance of it. <br />With a refusing to acknowledge its existence. <br />Like some admitting they've become 'offended'.~<br /><br />Lawrence S.
