Discrimination Hasn'T Distanced Pain Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Discrimination hasn't distanced pain.
And its effect.
Discrimination hasn't distanced pain.
To affect.
Discrimination hasn't distanced pain.
With shown regrets.
Discrimination hasn't distanced pain.
Not yet.

People carry sorrows they can solve.
And...
People if they wished could be involved.
And...
If disparaties would come to cease to end,
Every illness known would heal and mend...
Eventually.

Discrimination hasn't distanced pain.
And its effect.
Discrimination hasn't distanced pain.
To affect.
Discrimination hasn't distanced pain.
With shown regrets.
Discrimination hasn't distanced pain.
Not yet.
To rid it and forget...
The price of ignorance and what it costs.

Discrimination hasn't distanced pain.
Not yet.
To rid it and forget...
The price of ignorance,
And its loss.
Or its cost,
We all have lost!
