Behind the Pride-22.2 percent of the chance
Poem for LGBTQ community
It is all the lights shining bright
celebration of all –their birth right
The others say they are the blight
But they are not here to pick up the fight
The proud display has a shade behind
22.2 percent of the chance
The chance of expression
and living out your truth in the open
and maybe a lifetime of depression
Humanity seems broken
The right to life as designed
The law in 43 countries unspoken
43 countries criminalise
There it go your 22.2 percent
Being gay is illegal implies
It should be all really about consent
I hope we will redefine
system that would equally represent
It’s all rainbow and glitter
For a boomer or outsider
I do not mean to sound bitter
I just want to open hearts wider
22.2 is a message from divine
representing hope not a divider
They think they can ban a rainbow
That will help and cease
The Human nature we have always known
They think they can police
Ignorant with no control over design
The love is unconditional, the love is peace....
* based on 193 countries, 43 criminalise this community. Pride is about those who cant express themselves freely without worrying about their safety and with every parade we reinforce the message. It is all about love.
