Have To Forget Lame Favoritism

George Floyd
Name of the time
To remove the obnoxious word
"RACE, CASTE"
From the world dictionary of unkind,
From the scripture of beastly mind

Yes
George Floyd
Name of the rub out forever
The killer ism "RACISM, APARTHEID"

Distressful human forgets
The dangerous nCoV-19
There died many, dying and will die.....
Nevertheless
None afraid of that saboteur virus
They are on the street of protest
By the slogan for humanity
Through the procession of unity
Cause there everyone knows-
RACISM is the most hazardous than any other virus

Oh the sky is very sulky
The ground is alive bitterly
Weather playing there unscrupulous death role
Dwellers choke human rights forgetting timing goal

No, no way to live safe
For a peaceful world please come
Have to come to rub out
the word "HATE" forever
Have to forget, yes,
have to forget to say-
"I hate you because
You are a Hindu
You are a Buddhist
You are a Jew
You are a Christian
You are a Muslim.......
You are a black or a white
You are an African or an Asian or an Australian or an American or a European....."

Panagiota Romios June 8, 2020 at 10:24 AM I look at human beings not as groups, colors or ethnicities. We were created as the human race. Some do hate. Love overcomes all things. None of us is better than another because of race or religion. But we live in a world where people sere taught at home to hate. On earth, it will never go away. Panagiota xoxo Panagiota xoxo
