The Other

The other!! who is the other? The other:is anyone who is different from me, from my believes. The other :is the alcaholic who can't stop drinking, The other:is the drug addict who doesn't have more space where to inject himself. The other:is the prisoner in his cell forever for an act he did, after his horrible upbringing. The other:is the homosexual not accepted by his parents, cos of his sexual orientation. The other:is the scyzophrenic who is in an institute locked forever, instead of cured. The other:is the neighbour in my street who does not vote for democrats ,like me! The other is the muslim, hindu,protestant, who doesn't share my catholic believes. The other:is another neighbour with nice dark skin, whilst mine is white as a dove. we're different but.... Ilove:the other Ilove:the other as my ownself-charma
