The Haters

it really offends me 

when you so callously
call into question my...              
-beliefs                             
-thinking                         
-behavior                                           
-choices 

-pronouns                                
especially my feelings about
what is TRUE for ME
because these are...
-part of me

-my experience
-describe who I am and
 make me feel more...ME-

the person I have finally 

discovered -and now accept-
so for you to stand there
and cross-examine me is
really disrespectful and frankly...

very hateful and deeply hurts me so....

STOP IT! ..NOW!...you need to...

-be on my side
-be more welcoming / accepting...
-accompany me on this...my most 

 intimate and sacred journey...

-support me to be who I am..

and - hopefully- CELEBRATE with me...

then...and ONLY then...you'll stop

being such a hater or more accurately...

a completely Neanderthal human being...

you really need to accept / support

my personal feelings about myself

so whether you think I'm being too 

subjective. or am simply 'confused' please..

keep your opinions to yourself...I don't 

want to hear them.. whether they come 

from what you say the Bible says...or... 

what you say the Church teaches...or
how we all have been supposedly
created in our God-given natures...
or even what "reason" and "science" says...

whatever...because...those are just YOUR

interpretations o so-called truths but

that's not the way I see them...so...
I don't want to hear any of that.. and-
if I can be candid- your Jesus 

seems to be the CHIEF 'Hater'-

you make Him out to be so...judgmental....

so.. 'narrow-minded'...I say that 

because MY Jesus is ..compassionate, 

affirming and accepts me as I am since 

I feel He made me this way so at the 

end of the day none of your views matter

because they're all tainted by your prejudice

and hate-filled mind-set... so...again...to be 

perfectly clear...only MY feelings matter 

because I base my life on how I feel about

my own identity and what YOU call morality-

which is not something "out there somewhere"

but only truly 'within' me and only I can 

determine what's really right for ME....so 

bottom line is...each person has to decide 

for themselves what is right or wrong...true 

or false...who they are or are not...all based 

on their own life experiences...values and 

feelings...so no one can tell me...

-who I am or am not
-what to do / think because....
they don't REALLY know  me or
what's going on inside of me...
it's all about MY life...
not YOUR life or anyone else's...so...
what I need from you is your...
-acceptance
-support and
 -love so... please...
be a supporter...
not a hater 
because haters
don't deserve a
platform to spew their
offensive filth and so...

you force me to say that...
if you persist in your
hate-filled rhetoric and

narrow-minded bigotry...

you'll force me to .

write you off and frankly...
hate you...but then...
that's what you'll deserve...
