There is no time for chit chat
This or that.
Discussion is just waiting for our repercussions
Conversation will convert no one nowadays
Denial will not defend the defenceless
Battle cries don’t win battles
Punchlines won’t punch Nazis
Violence might be the answer, but neither are questions
Doubt never reaches the devout
Shouting shows only noise devoid of voice.
Choices are made, turns are played
Strike! what you abhor—or what are your fists clenched for?
It’s time to take action! It’s time to act!
It’s time to… to… to…
…um…
What were we going to do then? Where? When?
Let’s discuss this first.
What’s the worst that could happen?
