What the Outcome Might Bring

We are not about the
 Color of the skin.
   The substance of self,
 Lies deep with-in.

   We are not about
 Judging our neighbor.
   Or who you believe
 Is your savior?

   We are not about ignoring
 The homeless on the corner.
   We don’t judge if your
 A native or foreigner.

   We are all about giving 
 Everyone a chance.
   You screw up, then you
 Pay in advance.

   We are all about lending
 A helping hand.
   We support our
 Local clan.

   We are all about standing
 Up for our rights.
   Along our journey we
 Have many fights.

   We are all about taking 
 Care of one another
   One hand washes
 The other.

   We are all about helping
 A family in need.
   Even if we argue
 And disagreed.

   We are all about our Mom’s,
 Our flag and apple pie.
   We accept one another
 Even if we don’t see eye to eye.

   We are all about doing
 The right thing.
   No matter what the
 Outcome might bring.
