People hate for it
Kill for it
Shoot for it
And Steal for it
People say *** you for it
I love you for it
Fight for it
And Die for it
People go to war for it
Start riots for it
Go to trial for it
And Shave their heads for it
People cry for it
Mothers lie for it
Children get bullied for it
Governments have camps for it
RACE
No skin too dark, No skin too pale
No person too white,yellow,red, or black
We all feel from it
RACE

Hate, racism are bigotry. How can one possibly think the color of one's skin or personal ideas or religious beliefs makes one person any better than another. The only difference in any of us is the color of our skin. I think we are like a beautiful rainbow and we should be delighted to learn about others and the differences in our lifystyles. It is sad that children are taught this by parents. That is how it is mainly learned. By small minded, generally fairly unlearned, hypocrital bigots.

Great Poem. I love how you see the word "it" down the entire right hand side of the poem. Almost like it's a bible verse talking about the beast and not an action.

A lesson for us all here I think, learn to tolerate your fellow man ( and woman of course ).
Prejudice manifests itself in many forms, race being one of them.
Nice work
