Everybody’s Business
When it comes to abuse,
It’s everyone’s business.
It becomes a hospital’s business,
When they treat your injuries.
It becomes a dentist business,
When he or she has to pull records to identify you.
It becomes the court’s business
To punish your abuser.
It becomes CPS’ business
They will place your kids somewhere in foster care.
It become a funeral home’s business
Because as they bury you, somewhere.

And it should be everybody's business to see that America practices the equanimity ideology inked its constitution. Peace and Love.
