All Men Are Created Equal Poem by Driss Ezzireg

All Men Are Created Equal

Rating: 5.0


All men are created equal
All men are created coloured
Black, white, yellow, red and even blue!
All men have dreams, too!
So, what's the fuss?
Race?
Nothing to do with it.
Power.Yes.
No more, no less.
Shame on us; mankind.
So blind!

Through this small poem you have put across a very relevant question which has not been addressed by any sociologist, philosopher or a politician till date. Thanks for sharing. All men are created equal / So, what's the fuss? / Race? / Shame on us; mankind / So blind!

All men are the same and so should be equal. A child could tell you that. So why the inequality still? Thanks, Driss
