But Love We Must

written by: Dragonsilk

@dragons1lk

So much intolerance.
So many unkind voices, calloused minds, callous souls. So why let others feed our hate, feed on our fear.

How do we help and counter the spite.
How should we show that we care, that we share. How can we find a breathing space.

Where does love now live.
Where do we find a hand to hold, a heart that heals. Where can we be accepted for who we are.

But love we must.
Be what we are. Be there for each other.

Be the world for us all.

Warren Alexander

Warren Alexander grew up in Brooklyn, NY in a standard two parent, one son, one daughter household, and still lives in New York City. He was identified as the first five-year-old cynic his kindergarten teacher had ever encountered. He did not like children’s books because, well, they were written for children. Because he was a terrible student, he did not have his choice of colleges. He looked at the subway map and chose the nearest four year school by distance, Baruch College. He studied with Thomas Keneally, Peter Carey, and E. L. Doctorow, among others at NYU, where he received his MA in creative writing. His satiric novel, Cousins’ Club, was a semi-finalist for 2017 BookLIfe Award for General Fiction. His work, Wrong Train, placed second for the 2016 Rick DeMarinis Short Story Award judged by Michael Matrone. He is currently working on a satiric novel about business.
