DISTURB
Saint Teresa of Avila
famously said,
“Let nothing disturb you!”
“Let nothing disturb you!”
Well, I’m no saint,
but I hope a lot of things
disturb you.
I hope you yell when
someone dumps their
junk on our sidewalks.
Liars…. Liars …. Liars….
May your pants go on fire
every time you tell a lie.
I hope you scream,
“Wait a minute!” when bullies
start to take over the room.
More people need to stop abuse
and cover-ups and allowing the
uppity ups to get away with murder.
So, Saint Teresa, sorry to disturb you, but
if I read your story correctly, you surely weren't
scared to disturb the hell out of people.
