Dedicated to the
'redundant' and
'repetitious'.
 
 
I often hear people
quite fearful,
saying things like
white will marry
black,
and black will 
marry white.
 
Citing the Pledge
of Allegiance,
with hands on
their hearts,
united we stand
and divided we
fall.
 
That God loves
all people,
within Her range
of hearing.
We are precious
in His sight.
 
That our country
is not just for 
some people,
but it is for all.
 
That peace,
not chaos or
war,
is the liberty
for which we
fight.
 
That if men
become
liberated,
they will
act like
women,
and women
will act like
men.
 
Some even
question
equality,
freedom,
and justice
for same-
sex couples.
 
Saying that
Adam will
be just like
Eve,
and Eve
will be
just like
Ben.
 
But, is red
blood black
or white?
 
Is a male blue,
and a female
pink?
 
Is a man not
always a man,
and a woman
not always a 
woman?
 
Should our
belief and
value systems,
we re-think?
 
We are all
similar,
under the
skin.
It is color
or race
that which
we spite.
 
It is culture,
ethnicity, and
orientation
that make us
different.
 
But would
life not be
boring,
and how
rational
would we
be,
if all people
were the
same?
