Equal Rights

Equal Rights are guaranteed by law Quality of life has a major flaw Universal acceptance will start the thaw American laws are still too raw Leadership lost the bigoted draw Rights are rights, they belong to all Idiots who fear to make the call Give equality or watch the nation fall Help the just tear down the wall Truth prevail while hate will stall See us from the dark ages crawl Discrimination is discrimination no matter how it is disguised.

What a marvelous read from a blessed paged built on lines constructed with the lyrics of the skies and words well supported by dynamic foamy clouds. Message well expressed! No doubt an absolute 7##.

Well written acrostic. I like the rhyming at the end of the sentence. Equal rights are a must in a civilised society. Best wishes Linda

I like to tell everyone this - in my grade school class (1930s) the two smartest kids in the class were black. Good stuff, Vince. Love, daver

It would be very hard to write a law that could not be manipulated to read the way someone wanted it to read..I believe that really deep down inside each person knows what is right but we tend to ignore it..Interesting topic chosen about which to write and one to open up much conversation..Sara
