You Are Not God

You didn’t like the words she said
How gently she reminded you
That leaders should be merciful
That people’s lives are beautiful
You didn’t like the truths she told
That immigrants are human, too
Refugees needs safety, trans kids are sacred
Love shines like a rainbow

You are not God
Let me remind you
You are one among all
No less and no greater
You are not God
And you won’t use me
To justify the misery
And hatred you sow

You told them that I spared you
To bring you to this moment
A moment you've decided
Allows you to take everything and give nothing
You do not know me
My spirit or my teachings
But now you know I spared you
To be seated before her words

Her words have travelled far now
The quiet as she spoke them
Her vision bringing comfort
Her courage bringing hope
Her steadfastness a beacon
Even as you threaten
Resilience is awakened
In millions more
