The Insignificance Of...

The Insignificance Of Skin Color


The color of love will prevail: we, white,

     black, yellow, red, shall pacify the clash

     between good folks and ignorant, white trash,

haters who oppress others without right!


In numbers, unity explodes like night  

     afire with light (like a delivering flash!)

     swiftly tearing down hate with a loud crash,

silencing bigotry's bark, and racism's slight.


For none can dismantle the message of

     bold, fearless Youth who challenge the old view,  

and share a new worldview proclaiming love,

     justice, and equal rights we never knew.

Our tribes can live in peace and rise above

     as one, working together as one hue.
