Similarities

A Poem by Mixedthoughts

What you see is a choice

It is so easy to see the differences
Joe is black Jon is blue
One a lawyer one paints fences
One a Christian and the other a Jew

These differences build walls just like Donald trump
Filling the world with bullshit just to get a bump
This world full of lines and places never to cross
You must fill this paper out and it will have to cost

One man labeled as dumb the other retarded
Where did these terms even come from
Why must we fight and get bombarded
Hey look mom! There is hopeless bum

Until we feel the places
We can never judge
step in their shoes and tie the laces
Then you may understand and possibly drop that grudge

Challenging but rewarding when we see what is in common
Maybe we realize there is only one race
The sound of the gun and we all start joggin'
Who gives a s**t who wins
