Irrationality Of Prejudice Poem by Paul Amrod

Irrationality Of Prejudice



Two phrases of importance come to mind
We are not at fault for our genetic origin
All born from the Love of God's humankind
like a melodious passion from a violin.
Comforted by the breasts of our mothers
as she caressed us with warmth and security.
No different whether rich or impoverished
we are chosen to be amongst each other.
Wide-eyed with our innocence unblemished
we hold respect for our neighbor in purity.
Why then arises this embittered intolerable hate?
Through sympathetic eyes we can replenish
the appearance of talented latitudinarians.
They deliver tolerance to gratefully illustrate
the recognition of one's self-worth as priority.
Hence holding confidence for poor plebeians
for furtherance to realize their lives to cherish.
Relieving the inner turmoil of inferiority
while reaching a fruition through good Samaritans.
Remaining however humble as well as steadfast
to our collective deploring the iniquitous disparity.
Recollecting our heavenly gift the evil praetorian
will demise in shame then evaporate and vanquish.
The injustice will squander dissolve and dissipate
while the white-hooded racists are a thing of the past.
The demonstrators plead for a righteous equity
with the removal of the irrationality of prejudice.
A collaborative atmosphere can truly emancipate
us to a community of fulfillment and substance.
We cannot accept any form of vile superiority
for it perpetrates an ugly head of ignorance.
Let a view into our gorgeous universe to outlast
the shortcomings of a misdirected authority.
We will muster with creativity a metamorphosis
encircling our source of empathy with sincerity.
We are adept to develop our resources and tasks
to topple this outdated erroneous cowardice.
Antipathy is based on anxiety which often asks
an unanswerable question lost in inclarity.
The courageous response is the perfect remedy
claiming trust is a virtue of the downcast.
The useless exacerbation exists in a lost identity
to be found in our memory with growing genesis.
Holding the torch to the wind brings prosperity
against all odds to rediscover ourselves unsurpassed.
Regaining our childhood's enthusiasm is a rarity
we must all strive for as a prerequisite with emphasis.
Needless hesitation will be chased without remiss
into the doldrums of uselessness and irregularity.
There is here a hidden truth with an obvious purpose
to exemplify the angelic nature to bring the antithesis.
Abandoning hatred soothing the weak and harassed
bounteously charitably spreading light and verity.
Hence the plea with our hands stretching skyward
mankind presents fervently so convincingly lustrous.
We have risked our well-being expressing a byword.
Once again we soulfully plead for a righteous equity
with the removal of the irrationality of prejudice.
Indeed the moment of reconciliation and magnanimity
will fall upon us enabling growth through a chrysalis.
