Justice And Equality..... Poem by Eric Cockrell

Justice And Equality.....

Rating: 5.0


justice and equality...
two very human dreams,
and the hope that allows us
to bring children into the world!
cannot be defined by color,
nationality, religion, or sex...
cannot be regulated by class,
cannot be different for those
who have and those who have not...

cannot allow poverty,
cannot allow hunger,
cannot allow oppression...
to continue!

must be worked for...
everyone has a part,
everyone has a responsibility.

respect,
dignity,
hard work,
sharing of needs...
we are destined to be family.

nations are egos,
we are citizens of the world.
the man fighting to feed his family
across the ocean is your brother.
the ones you're dropping bombs on
are your children.
the ones you kill crossing the border
looking for hope have the faces of god.

justice and equality...
think about it!
