Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser Poet Verse

Big Big Slam To Racism

Eating, bathing, grooming, defecating and sleeping
All these are activities of daily living

We are breathing same air
Combing everyday our own hair
Warmed and darkened by same sun
Sleeping after a whole day is done
Shot or cut; black and blues we can have
Different type but our hearts same. It beats with blood!
One time or another we feel sad and glad!
You love games and fun. And I,too, is same!
Walk, run, talk, smile, cry: all we can do unless for some exemptions
Wholeheartedly without hesitations and inhibitions...

Captain on our own ships
Generals on our own everyday battles
Prima ballerina on our own life dance
Managers on our own businesses
Teachers on our own examples and words
Leaders on our own small or big ways
Builders and engineers of our own dreams
And much much more than we can imagine...

But...

What are those frowns?
Why are those arched eyebrows?
What are those questioning belittling look?
What and why are those foul remarks?

Different skin; different creed
Different names, different race
Different status; different styles
Different lands, different tongues
_
The bottomline is
God made me and God made you
Respect me and I will respect you
That we ought to do
No need for clue nor cue
DO RESPECT BECAUSE IT IS DUE
We are equal of dignity
Each and everyone possess a deal of integrity
All are blessed 
All are gifted with talents
Capable of enhancing a potential
And discovering any other grace
Explore! 
Taste the spice!
Speak humbly and be nice!
You maybe surprise!?!
How each and one can entice!

Therefore, you!
You who are racists!
CUT! CRACK! SLAM THAT RACISM CRAP! 
Take a stand and make it grand!
No need for plans!
Hand and hand let's make this earth a better land!

Darren Watson June 12, 2014 at 6:50 AM Racism always has and always will exist but the growing number who won't tolerate it gives me hope that those who would abuse will become the abused , Showing them how stupid they are may be just the thing to change them. Olive Eloisa Guillermo - Fraser June 12, 2014 at 5:48 PM Yes showing them in a kind way so it will not stir hate or more... Kindness is the sweetest insult and sometimes a silent mockery too..:)
