Sacred Word Poem by Alfonso Siverls

Sacred Word



Forgive them
For they know not what they say
When they violate this sacrosanct word

A secular sacrosanct word
That is protected by historical
Conscience and
Deeply cemented in my
Collective psyche

And when it is violated
It tears a scar into my soul
So deep
That it can cause God himself
To shed a tear

The N word
