Poem Title:
Poem
Black vs white vs dark skin vs “yellow bone Men vs women vs straight vs homosexual Poor vs the rich vs Afro vs weave Christian vs Muslim vs atheist All are keeping score None will ever admit to being wrong All are “woke" You correct a brother and they'll go all intellectual on you with their fancy words And when you don't grasp what’s being said, your opinion is null and void. A sister would rather twist your words and make you look foolish rather than accepting the truth and be nourished It's every creature for themselves, even at the expense of everything else All are hollering their righteousness in the mountains It's not about peace, about unity, hell it's not about the course they claim to fight for, it's about gratification not justification Everybody rushes to be “quoted “ Nobody hushes down to reach a fair conclusion, Because why would they want that? If a solution is found, what would they babble on about?, The “intellectuals “ shall all be heard, So do the “wise-saints” and the “woke" It was never about peace everlasting It's about making it in the history book Your idealism and ideologies are what important . Now I’m not saying ignore the injustices of this broken world We should all fight to be heard and nobody should be deemed more important than the other You don't care about freedom, peace and unity If you did , you’d sit down and discuss a way forward and not debate your own ways to win What if crime was crime and a criminal, a criminal Instead of an act of injustice against a certain group It'll be crime against Humanity , because unity Will a man be ashamed to report abuse against a woman? Nobody would point at him and see him weak for it because all are equal And it's not a woman against man, but an inhumane act against Humanity Would the less privileged frail to speak against the elite? A child be afraid to speak against family elders? Nobody would be punished less than they deserve All should fight to be heard and demand equality But if we all strive to surpass each other when will the rollercoaster stop? How many more years should pass in order for us to decide to be humans first, You’re human before religion, colour, race, gender, sexuality, class, You’re a human first.
