The Fall

Fall time ascends to my preoccupied mind,
Colours clashing so loudly amongst silent flora,
But as I stare I feel, so boldly, a translucent aura,
So disodent next to brothers and sisters they sing proudly:

"We are all created equally different and still,
You will find us standing together wholly indifferent,
The ground and sky that hold us: bind us forever."

Why do people think themselves different?

My vision shrinks to the cold metal box by my meal,
To a screen of brothers and sisters screaming loudly:

"We are all created unequally different,
Find us standing together; it will turn to incident,
Respectfully heed what we say, then you will see,
The ground and sky that separates us is not free"
