The Love of Humankind

Fighting the surge of life’s denial Battling divisions of untrue love Confrontations with municipalities As St Paul’s words on institutions Sounds of one’s name cringing Wondering the true reasons why Undercurrent separating citizens Like Lazarus collecting crumbs Denial of humanity and true love Breaking hearts of thy neighbors Skip whipped to a different color As Christ stumbling with the cross Racial attitudes need reconciling Healing of bigotry for our nation Citizens denying equal protection Eliminate racial injustices now!
