SILENCE

#silence
I would rather die, than stay silent. When faced with uncertainty, the best action is to use:
your pen
your paintbrush
your keyboard
your voice
and fight against it
BE NOISY!!!
White supremacists, fascists, and anyone against human rights are on the wrong side of history. Trans Rights are human rights. Defend LGBTQ+ being systematically attacked in states and countries throughout the globe through art. Be brave and defiant in your art. Art is action. If you would rather not make art (that is okay). Be at peace. But do not badmouth those artists who stand up against the forces trying to squash out y[our] rights. 
Conclusion:
Silence was written years ago to protest the action of being silenced. The mask I donned in this poem was a bio/chemical contamination (a military promask) and not the kind we currently wear during the pandemic.
