I look around.

There are so many

Boxes.

Boxes of the hundreds,

Thousands,

Millions,

Billions

So many I could not possibly count

The endless hall of boxes

Going on forever and ever and ever. . . .

And ever is a long time you know.

These boxes

Have so many labels.

I walk up

To a. . . box

As I wonder what it could possibly be.

I open this box

And wouldn't you believe

A box filled with those

Who do not instantly agree

With who they were born as

And what they should be.

Another box

Filled with little Muslim girls

Who are the cutest, sweetest things

In the terrorist box
But why. . .

Why be so cruel?

So cruel to those little things?
