Imagine

(Is it Any Wonder We Are Screwed Up?)

Brendan W Vittum
Imagine
(Is it any wonder we are screwed up?)

Imagine
a world
where young men
are told to be
strong,
silent warriors - are told
they need be in touch with,
unafraid of,
feelings.

Imagine
a world
where young women
are told to accept
themselves,
are beautiful in the who
and what they are -
and a ceaseless stream
of contrary images parade
past their eyes
and ears.

Imagine.

Imagine what this world
might look like. But then,
you do not need to
Imagine.
