Oh, Dear
*
What should we do?
They’re not like us.
They look funny.
Darker
They spend time in the woods.
What do they do out there?
I’ve heard they eat berries and nuts.
No meat.
They don’t speak our language.
What god do they worship?
They walk around as if they own this place.
Our place.
Heads held high.
Not grateful for the scraps we give them.
Who do they think they are?
What will they want next?
They have lots of kids who they fawn over.
They stick together.
They’re taking over.
Our land.
We’ve got to do something.
Or else.

Well said, Paul! It can really help to look from a different perspective.
Thank you, Laurie.
Well, you could grab your gun or enjoy the beauty of what is there temporarily in front of you. American white, Trumpist Christianity or Buddhism??? Which is more popular up there in Iowa at this point? Hmmm…those deer better run.
Thanks for the comment, Rob. I hope you are doing well.
