Retreating Bigotry

As the walls
of traditional hate
continue to crumble 

It's hard to believe
the startling speed
that homophobia
is finally on the run

but let's face it

In the end

throughout history

all bigotry
eventually falls

As the so called
"greatest generation"
(if you were a white male)
and their direct offspring
continue their slow fade out

They take to the grave
their varied prejudices
which were once
the law of our great land

Today
tech advances blaze by
in the blink of an eye

but social progress
evolves
painfully slow

so we the people

still have a long way to go
