playing double Dutch is fun
reminiscent of a time
when I did not know
the world was coming undone.
why am I still playing double Dutch?
with my faith and my heart
which often conflict
despite dire happenings as such
where life should be prioritised regardless –
ultimately.
always.
sharing a meme won’t end a genocide
but unity as humanity
can overthrow governments
yet I cower behind pride …
pride in what?
I am playing double Dutch in a free land
why be for or against anything
when ignorance can be passed off as innocence –
and that is still able to stand.
we’re not free, till they are free
from the river to the sea.
