Poem
Being born of privilege came with 
certain expectations; life was planned,
The silver spoon had been placed at 
the mouth by a single command.

Superiority was the chosen station
and vocation,
Inferiority was frowned upon in each
generation.

No one questioned what they were
ordered to do,
If it meant jump or kill, they followed 
through; a loyal crew.

But the things taught crumpled when
when a crimson fluid flowed out,
A stray arrow hit an expected target; 
as he fell, there was a  loud shout.

All in the company of the unexpected 
fled, leaving the badly wounded to die,
However, strolling through the woods
dark brown eyes couldn't pass by.

He saw light blue eyes and showed 
compassion nursed him back to health;
Hearts and souls were connected; it
It didn't matter if one had wealth.

Preconceived opinions died, brothers
were born that day,
An unbreakable tie and bond until death
was made; respect had its say.

Judging another harshly without merit
It makes no sense.
However, being taught such things since
birth is valid argument even its free of
common sense.

But what if everything thing one was
taught was untrue, and a lie?
When one comes face to face with the 
truth, they must break the tie.

The lie crumbles, no matter how valid
it looked at first,
Stand up for truth even if you have 
been coerced.

We are the same, in the eyes of God, 
the notion that we are not, 
Are lies given to us masquerading as
truth and a misguided plot.

We must not judge another, lest we judge 
the person in the mirror,
It is like indirectly passing judgment on 
self; get to know thyself to see clearer.

We are connected linked together; we're 
part of the same tribe-called Homosapien;
Even if the color of your skin is Asian, 
Native American, Latin, African or Afro
American, Middle Eastern, or European. 

When this is realized upon self-discovery, one
can observe the reflection in the mirror,
And see the one starring back is you, and your 
perception of your reflection is much clearer.
















*Homosapien-  Early modern human or anatomically modern human are terms used to distinguish Homo sapiens that are anatomically consistent with the range of phenotypes seen in contemporary humans from extinct archaic human species.
