The trial of witches in salem, mass
Though long ago, again we play
A court of men decides
This time it seems fair laws they pass

Who should get the rights we crave
If you’re straight or if you’re gay
What matters who you lay beside
Loving someone else is not depraved

You burnt in flames out of no fault
For evil crimes they said you pay
Who cares if accusations lied
Now we find such blame in the assault

In years to come, I hope to see
This black and white will fade to grey
No one has to pick a side
Where everyone can claim humanity

We have the key

A nice surprise.

Not quite what I expected from the title, but I enjoyed the message.

A just write for a just right.
How can anyone condemn any true love relationship between two consenting adults?
All civil rights should be offered and enforced equally, without discrimination.
