News Victoria's Poem So What?So what I have darker skin than you So what I have white skin, does that affect anything I do? You say, “Go back home!” But I have lived here all of my life, so where do you expect me to go? So what I have a disability So what I think different to you My mental health and physical health are far from good But your hate does not help this, I don’t know what to do So what I’m gay, bi, trans or straight If I wish to love a boy, or girl that’s my choice Don’t spread the hate It does not hurt you, so don’t hurt me So what if I’m old, yes it’s trueBut young people age and will become elderly tooSo what if I’m young Is it wrong? So what if I’m a lady So what if I’m a manIt is the modern ageWe should see that together we must stand Prejudice comes in many shapes and sizes Everybody lives in this world, we have oneSo we should stand together. Everyone!Lets combat hate before it consumes us entirely “So what should I do?” You ask“So what if it doesn’t affect me?”The answer is to take a stand To set all people free Hate is a noose Prejudice a ropeDon’t be the executionerBe the one who gives hope Manage Cookie Preferences
