All Men
All men are equal under God
(Equally just another walking talking blob of Earth)
But all men are not equal on this Earth
(Unequal in our every detail).
This is how it has always been
And always will be,
A given which spurs us on to sink or swim.
We’re equal in how we all can drown
We’re unequal in how we don’t.
And this is what makes Life worth living.
