maybe if we stopped
spewing hate
and just loved each other
the world could be a better place

religion
all it seems to do
is prove
a weapon

separating
me
and
you

people use it as they like
screaming wrong
and
screaming right

applying it as they see fit
if you can't follow your own religion
religiously
don't tell me how to live my life

weaponizing categorized
targeted
hatred
where's that Bible verse about love?

I'll tell you
It's in
Matthew
22

Love your neighbor as yourself

religion isn't supposed to be
an excuse
to justify
your prejudice

it's a way to live
with a moral compass
to guide your own actions
not tell me how to act

so stop telling everyone else what to do
and start doing what you preach
shut your mouth
put down the picket signs

pick up your
fucking
dignity
please

go grab your Bible
and start
to
read
