If I Could Change the World

If I had the power to change the world
I would make it blind to color, size, and race.
I would have people see each other’s spirits.

If we could see spirit instead of flesh 
We would be able to see who glows the brightest 
Who has the greater good in their heart.

We would not be divided by melanoma 
We would not be prejudiced by body size or age
We would not be distracted or influenced by height or lack of 

If I had the power to change the world
I would eliminate the bodies, 
So we could concentrate on souls.
