Respect

Respect all you see
Even those
Who stop at nothing
To try and get you
To respect
Nothing about them
Care not
About what against you
Or what you believe
They do say

But respect them
Anyway
And if nothing else
Take pity on them
But don't hate back
For that road
Truly leads
To nowhere
Show them
Exactly what
They refuse

To show you
Teach them
By example
And in doing so

See how far
Both of you
Can truly go
Because remember
In the end
Hate and retaliation
Get you nowhere
At least not
Anywhere you
Actually want
To go
