For Your Haters
by Karyn Indursky
To everyone who
makes fun of
how you look,
the way you walk,
willingness to help others,
loan an ear,
exchange inside jokes,
swap stories,
dance to your own rhythm,
choice of diction,
sound of your laughter,
expressions on your face,
and every other person
feeling the compulsion
to belittle everything about you
let them hate you,
but don't allow them
to destroy you from
the inside out
because you're crafted
by God
and all of us have a purpose.
