Grim Monsters in Our Society
Community Poem Heading link
Who are the grimm monsters in our society? How do you mask them? Overcome them?
It’s easy to want to give up.
Society attacks in every direction
Silence. Numbers standing up. Yelling. Chanting. Sometimes I’m weak, but other time I’m strong. My heart is strong
It’s what keeps me in bed before I can put on a face and put on a front to face the constant push back as I continue to try to move forward
FORWARD. But society is always pushing me back. Because I’m what? I’m a woman. I’m human? Aren’t we the same but yet you still keep telling me how and who to be. But fuck it. All of it. I love you. I love me FUCK SO-CI-E-TY
Always keep your heart and your mind open. There is more to a person than what you can see. Greatness comes in all shapes in sizes
Live love, live proud, live happy, live free
D. Trump, not vote of support him & fight for equal rights for all!
Ignorant people who don’t wish to change. Knowledge, Patients & pride in yourself, culture make them little, don’t be afraid!
The shadow aspect within us all hatred, jealousy, judgement, endless competition.
Be willing to live in love
Educate yourself, liberate yourself from human constructed dinsions (?)
Those who try to conform to “societal norms” in order to be accepted and avoid persecution. Culture and tradition is something that should not by lost. As immigrants of this country we must stand with dignity and prove those who doubt us wrong.
Corrupt police are the grimm monsters in our society to overcome them we need to know our rights
Grim monsters are within our hearts. They are the ones that once made us innocent to the ones we aren’t comfortable with or the ones we loathed
It’s easy to want to give up. Society attacks in every direction
The grim monsters in our society can be our coworkers and managers who think they have a right to supress us
The people in society who won’t give another person a chance to express themselves freely.
Patriarchy, racism, people who are shitty
Positivity! Behavior, attitude, beliefs & thoughts of others affect our own. We should be the change we want to see instead of waiting for change to arrive. One person can make a difference – on candle lights a thousand
If we don’t fight for what we believe in or stand up for others maybe we’re the monsters?
People open up
It’s a beautiful thing,
Share your stories
Share your pain,
We are all the same
Say it
Say what’s on
your mind
Even if
your voice
shakes!!!
