Cayugan Tears

join my grandmother's thick dark hair 
— incompatible 
to those who throw stones 
and call me "white Indian"...

And Jim Henson went along to give him a hand
But when filling out race
Kermit had both a trace	
Of pistachio and cotton American...

The Peace Behind Ethnicity
someone asked me to define the peace of ethnicity
I am just a Mahogany child
of Babylon
sitting in my tree
my grandfather planted this tree
I am sitting in my grandfather's tree
eating a strawberry
reminiscing
that is what peace looks like to me
I am ethnicity....

Premium Member - Watch Out For Cactus Needles -
Balance between love and limits
The relationship between power and love
No distinction between gender, ethnicity, age or religion
Cooperation between people and countries, gives strength
Let limits fall, allow the love to grow

Premium Member Continental Ethnicity Similarity
North American, South American and European,
Asian, African and Australian.
What do the ethnicities of all these continents share in common?
They are all homo sapiens, they are all human.
If we focused on that similarity and not the difference,
perhaps world peace would then truly begin.
Hmm, I wonder if there's an ethnicity known as Antarctican....

Campaign Within
Removing the mindset 
of racial segregation
In this nation is in need.
Because we were freed.
But still there is greed.
Selfish indeed
Meaningless elections 
Corruption accepted 
And the amount of mellinin in your skin
Determines your ethnicity
Then ponder which is worse and which is better
The apartheid era
Or the post-apartheid error?...

Jungle Jungle
For ethnicity 
draped in gasoline
you burn the sky.

Who was fighting a
jungle abandoning
every thought ?

Step aside,
mirror, Oh mirror,
I am going up in heap of flames.

This self-annihilation.
Will it take you to
promised heaven of deaf gods ?

The dust, the heat, the soot.
They are going to blacken your
entrals. How will you come out in moon ?

Attrition
If money was tight to a rope would it be consider loose or communism income

If the blind hand a hand on a bag does the bag look or speak with money is spend

If sign language was like a license would it sit there or play gamble with attribution or ethnicity 

If matter and fact count sufficiency income would we all know statistics or the 

First one count to share a proper degree....

Humanity Is the Ultimate Ethnicity
Humanity is the ultimate ethnicity
I don't care were you are from
I cry for the world
Who is to guide us
Truly all in one direction
I wonder to yonder
Which other way 
Humans needs to go
If we forbid just a little
Kindnesses
Just a little kindness
can make a change
Just a little care
Can hear a soul
Just a little 
Is not much 
And we can start
To build a new world
For our soul benefit 
Once again...

I Am Not
I AM NOT!
I am not Black, cause you say I am
I am not White cause I look like you
I am not Red, from a tribe that’s dead
I am none of what your government said
I’m to sign my sex on the dotted line
I am not an ethnicity nor a race
I am not a refugee from another place
I am not a figure lost in time 
Nor a hex or curse from the “Most Devine”
Let me tell you, Who I am………
I am the creation from the likeness of which “IAM”...

The Branches
Does the branch of ethnicity belong to the Judiciary Branch in our political setting?

One Branch may think that their goal is to protect
The other Branch doesn’t see a threat

Realizing that the meeting of the minds never met
It goes to a vote and the numbers in agreement
Wins the bet

What’s contained in politics? I’ll name a few

Strategy, management, and oratory skills
It’s what some politicians are missing on the hill...

COPLA 104 RESOLUTION : This Bad Guy World

Ethnicity geography parent
Ferment in spiritual cauldron :
Breed gods violent

Who wants to serve gods heirs apparent
Can believers be made to reason :
God indolent

Gods thus get imposed on others
Through violent spiritual conquests :
Meek must submit

One Way of Life spread over borders
Not by sword nor by royal behests :
There gods must quit

See Something, Say Something
I see something, but I can’t say something 
Because of my Language 
I see something, but I can’t say something 
Because of my color 
I see something, but I can’t say something 
Because of my ethnicity 
I see something, but I can’t say something
Because of my race 
I see something, but I can’t say something 
Because of my position
I see something, but I can’t say something
Because of my status
But yes, my good eye is open always...

Peace, South Sudan
This is a plea piece for peace, 
Peace for beloved south Sudan, 
War against each other must cease, 
That said and done, 
Will put off humanitarian crisis, 
My lines on this poem dancing, 
to the rhythm of togetherness on a daily basis, 
Interested parties has to stop financing, 
Acts of animosity, atrocity
First World countries need to intervene, 
Thousand are becoming victims of negative ethnicity, 
Bring to an end war that's what I mean....

Premium Member Which Stretches Farther
Which Stretches Farther
By Franklin Price
2/9/2017

Which stretches farther, skin or rubber?
Answer discovered by a Bubba
Helps with that ethnicity
To know of elasticity

Did his research with much care
Bred a donkey and a mare
Then tied his ass off to a post
And walked five miles so he could boast

Bubba thought that stretch quite far
Rubber would snap, fall to the tar
Had found the answer, which was skin
Don't agree? Read this again...

Premium Member Search For World Peace
For eighty-plus years I’ve searched for world peace Elusive in its transparency, In a troubled world that fails to understand The meaning of calm tranquility, Though nature illustrates the elements clear Sadly, mankind chooses deliberately To ignore the value of common brotherhood And shared ethnicity.

Humanity Is My Race, My Tribe
I know I belong to a group
That group is humanity group
And there every human being is

All humans are one by race
And by tribe or ethnicity
That race and tribe is humanity

Other animals have their group
Cattle tribe, Cat tribe, Fowl tribe
And there are many of these races

Do not call me Black or White
No one is superior or inferior
For all are in humanity group

Equal, one, in unity, mutual
That is where I gladly belong
What about you my dear!...

Premium Member Love Abates
Hanging on hope, acknowledging I wade along through empty promises Away, farther and farther, I drift Outside realms of delusions I’ve seen And like a child hold to Words ever spoken in faith, august By a Father who loves unconditionally Each person regardless of hue, Origin, creed, ethnicity, religion… All, differences imposed, willfully Inciting division, one generation to next And like dominoes, each falls … Fear, animosity thrive as love abates ~*~

People 
By 
J. A. Long

People are people regardless of 
Ethnicity and history 
Even in feeble steeples 
During the Christmas season
Which is the coldest time In America

People are proverbial birds
In need of proverbial seeds
But are not interested in searching 
For those seeds which are at proverbial bird feeders
 
People are all somewhat different
Some are friendlier than others
And some are more accepting than others
Even at Christmas time-be open to them
