A very timely poem:
(received by DM, posted with permission, author unknown to me)

I Didn’t Know That You Were Racist….

I didn’t know that you were racist
Till I saw you on the news
Running out of JD sports
With a pair of Nike shoes

I didn’t know that you were racist
Till it showed you standing there
Beside that guy in a football shirt
With your right arm in the air

I didn’t know that you were racist
Till I watched you kick that door
Of the cafe in botanic
Where we had lunch before

I didn’t know that you were racist
But I’m sure I heard you shout
That you hated all the immigrants
And wanted them burnt out

I didn’t know that you were racist
When last talking to your wife
She said, that doc’s from Pakistan
The one who saved your life

I didn’t know that you were racist
I never knew you held those views
But alas my friend you’re dead to me
Since I saw you on the news
