I'll Remember.


When the world is hostile,
And people draw battle lines.
When that which is different is demonized,
And dehumanizing labels replace faces.
When humility is a weakness,
And people are defined by who they oppose.
When dignity is vandalized by caricatures,
And suspending judgment is heresy.
When competition replaces compromise,
And compassion becomes a fairy-tale.
And my heart aches for a smile
That does not hide a sneer.


Then I will remember my God is love.
And Love will have the last word.
