United Faces Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

United faces of discrimination.
All claiming,
Illiterate social consciousness.
And an absence of told,
Historic truth deceived.

That history includes,
Abusive misuse of...
Materialism.
Capitalism.
Political and religious,
Cultist affiliations.
Dreams to wish.
Wants to get.
Racial biases and differences.
Democracy, hypocracy...
And all that is between seen,
Discriminated.
Originally...
Achieved and created by God.

Then...
Greed came to feed,
Man made hatred.
A 'manmade' that keeps,
What God has created...
Left to go unappreciated.
With this perceived to believe,
Those who achieve a given...
Position of power to sit,
Thinking of skin color.
And race to play games with.
Disregarding God's purpose.

That kind of thoughtlessness,
Is sick.
Period.
Whether said to have heard,
Or ignored to keep...
Defending the ignorance of it.
It is still limited,
To the obviousness...
Of mental illness.
And...
Practiced as a normalcy.
That never was to ever be...
A rewarding of ignorance.

'They...are White.
They...are Black.
They...are Hispanic.
They...are Asian.
And,
They all seem to have...
The same issue! '

'Oh?
And what would that be?
Pretentious impressions,
To make.
With an inability to accept,
Or appreciate...
A place God has created.
A creation God,
At anytime done...
Can stop tolerating,
Their ongoing nonsense.
Taking what is precious,
As worthless without value! '

'And...
Spending billions of dollars,
Probing the Universe.
Looking for life elsewhere.
While spending much less,
Destroying the quality of life...
Already here!
To hope to take this ability,
Throughout the Cosmos.'

'What a brilliant,
And teaching moment...
That will be.
For artificial intelligence,
To accomplish and achieve! '
