Dragons

You
hate with your tongue
shame with your ignorance
oppress with your eyes

and like the sky
I stand arms wide
engulfing your darkness

You
cage with your threats
chain with your prejudice
suffocate with your lies

and like a zephyr
I float by
free from your fears

I've seen you
     kill him
     rape her
     bash us

and like dragons
We stand our ground
ready
defiant

with fiery eyes
     piercing at justice

with steel claws
     unleashing power!
