Punky Fu

Do not let their tiny eyes bore into you
Nor mind their tiny brains
trying to understand what they cannot.
They only hate what they fear
And fear what they can never be.
More’s the pity-
and left for you and me.

Let us put on the costume
And play the parts
So that the world might think
We belong.
I’ll say the right words
as you stand resolute
hiding behind our masks.
