Education is Key

Education is key to the Resistance.

Kindness, compassion
Laughter, creativity
Qualities that define me

Embrace your good ones
Nurture the best in yourself
Ignore those who discourage

Reinforce the path
Shine a light on all that’s wrong
The Resistance calls

I just wear earrings
Have no desire for tats
Needles make me weak
I tried a double piercing
I changed my mind, just like that

We cannot confine our existence
Only to those whom look like us
Our country is best
And primed for success
When others are welcome to join us.
