HERETIC

You might be labeled a heretic,

You might,

If you say,

Things may work out.

But they might.

Why risk it though?

All that vitriol,

Now aimed at you.

It’s people like you that…

Fill in the blank.

It’s you that’s the problem,

You and your unbridled optimism,

Suggesting we might sort ourselves out,

How dare you.
