Conscious Thought
Our earth is balanced
in the air we share.
As it moves around
our sun... we care.
We act in daylight.
We sleep at night.
As days go by we choose our plight.
Our early ancestors
experienced the same.
The Sun’s exposure
caused skin color names.
now we choose
to either love or hate
the kinds of color
that rules our fate.
This is nonsense!
We have little control
on who will inherit
our upper class role.
However, we can learn
from history’s call.
We’re more than skin!
We’re heart and soul.
