Without a title, without a label, without a religion

Elegance poured in crystal glasses
Religion. Cheers.
Too long 
have we been poisoned.

Snatch it
from those ugly hands.
Smash it
on the hardest stone.
Breathe free.
Love again.
Spread out
under the open sky.
Sing.
Breathe free.
Burn their hate to ashes.

Fear not obscenities
poisoned minds
hate filled bellies.

Love.
Hold hands.
Stand tall.
Breathe free.
Do that again
and again
and again
until their ghosts cringe with fear
and melt away.
