    Shades of the human race

    Black
    White
    Red
    Yellow
    Label we put on yourself
    Or labels forced up on us by governmental institution
    To separate ourselves from each other through the means of fancy words
    Phases such as “ he isn’t one of us”, stick with your own kind
    The notion that because your skin is not like mine
    That’s it’s a new race
    Some new species to be exam by the doctor and scientist,
    But when you cut us, we all breed red
    One heart, one mind, two hands, two feet, one kidney, one liver
    We choose to use the small things to divide ourselves
    For what ever reason we may deny
    The facts there is only one race and it come in many wonderful shades
    We should try to live with each other
    Or be the destroyer of our faith and the next generation

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
