Rage

You give them guns
Then you rage

You declare war
Against mask mandates
Safe school openings
And selfish teacher unions

“Think of the children”
Your battle cry

You invade school board meetings
Protesting critical race
And great replacement
Theories and conspiracies
Banning books
Calling teachers groomers
And boycotting social-emotional needs
Of our children

You tweet about the border crisis
Broadcasting questions that agitate hate

While preachers shout to congregations
Proclaiming liberals must be destroyed
Shouting “you ain’t seen an insurrection yet!”

Today
Again
Children are caught
In the crosshairs
Innocent victims
Of political rage

We don’t need
Your hollow thoughts
Nor your shallow prayers

Hey there! I'm K.L. McDaniel, an introverted extrovert who's into fitness with a bit of a twist and always shuffling through life's organized clutter. Here at TheOtherKLM, I dive into everything that makes us tick—from the quiet corners of introverted minds to the sweat and joy of staying active, all while keeping our mental game strong. I'm all about contradictions that somehow make perfect sense. Think of me as your go-to for exploring how to learn endlessly, live healthily, and think deeply, all without losing our collective minds. It's not just about fitness or learning; it's about finding balance in the chaos and connecting in the most unexpected ways. So, if you're into making sense of life's beautiful mess with me, stick around. We're in for a journey of learning, laughing, and maybe a bit of dancing... metaphorically speaking, of course.
