Colors do not matter
In a sea of diversity
Be exactly who you are
Let everybody see
The soul that you encompass
Don’t be afraid to be
For together, brothers and sisters
We become Human-ity

They cross the bridge, into the light
Blinded by the wondrous sight
That leads them to a better place
A sanctity, they can embrace
With golden rails, to guide their way
This final place is where they’ll stay
To live in peace, eternity
And leave behind humanity
For beyond the light that shines ahead
Lies the glorious promise of life, instead

This,
this is what causes me to
lose,
lose my faith,
my faith
in the human heart, the
Human being.
So out of control, like a
runaway freight train,
Touching down like a tornado,
a swirling destruction of debris,
taking everything in its path.
All in the name of what?
What,
I ask,
do you gain
from sacrificing
your mortal soul
to the demon known as
greed

For what is love?
Is it a mere mortal sin?
The yearn for the flesh
That leaves the heart behind
The human taste
That sours a soul
Desire over passion
A lusting, unemotional
Of three words
Oft misspoken
For no better than
To gain false approval
A lie, a lure, pure delusion
In a never ending seduction
Of humanity, a foreplay
Of the mind
The prelude to cynicism

Society is like a crossword grid
Each part of a life carefully fitting
Inside its own square
The ups intersecting with the downs
Attempting to invade a space
Meant for something else
Passageways blocked
Indicating an end
Hoping the clues will give meaning
To the numbered journal
Whose evidence cannot be so easily erased
