XENOPHOBIA

Xenophobia definition:

an unreasonable fear or hatred of foreigners or strangers or of that which is foreign or strange.

XENOPHOBIA (poem) :

Well my opinion is simple

if what makes you happy doesn't hurt anybody else.

Go ahead, Why not ?

We are all different, whether we like it or not.

Is not like one type of person

will take over the world and eat the rest.

People are different, on culture, ethnicity or race...

On sexuality, gender, religion, beliefs, and a lot more as well...

So why the hell does everyone needs to be like you?

Don't make the atrocious mistake the Nazi's

did against the Jews;

Our differences mean nothing

When compared to our most important similarity

I have heard it is called H-U-M-A-N-I-T-Y

How could you even prefer for a little girl to starve on the streets,

Over her living in a home of gays fathers

that give her what she needs.

Tell me, if your son likes boys,

would you wait for him to kill himself,

To regret your ignorant choice,

of rejecting him for being gay.

Wouldn't you desire for him joy

or for his voice to be heard?

No matter who he is...

Doesn't he deserve to live without pain destroying his soul?

I believe in a God, that does no wrong.

And bullying is not correct... At all

So how could you say his voice

demands for you to reprimand other beings?

What happened with compassion and love?

I believe... That's the true source of our Lord.

Humans are shaping and twisting his words...

Please do not speak for him.

Don't be like those who plant a bomb on a bulding

don't be blind enough to believe...

You must destroy what you don't agree with.
