Right or Wrong

An Anaphora Poem

Right or Wrong?

What is right these days seems wrong
What is wrong these days seem right
How can that be – let us see!

How can burning police cars be right
Braking store windows thru the night
Pushing people, throwing rocks, right?

How can breaking the law be right
Undocumented people citizens on site
Officers of the law considered the offender?

What is wrong these days seem right
What is right these days seem wrong
How can that be – it is what we see!

Smashing glass, spray painting buildings
Stealing items cannot be called protesting
Not right, not right; are they just testing?

What is right these days seem wrong
What is wrong these days seem right
It is all upside down
How can we get it right side up?
