With all our “differences”
our difference IS
NOT in skin tone embedded —
it's not geographic or ethnic.
It is not religious — and this is critical —
despite what you think, it isn't political.
It's not genetic and it isn't sexual.
(And it's for dead certain, it ain't intellectual.)
It's not favorite comics or economics,
it isn't the language we speak,
the songs we sing,
the flag we salute,
our favorite pursuit,
if we pollute,
who's more hirsute.
None of these is really to blame.
Withal these “differences”,
we're all the same.
We can't get along
because I'm-right-you're-wrong
is always the name of the game.
THAT is THE problem!
(It's a GDF! shame.)
All the way back
to Pandora's jar,
our problem, as always,
is, sadly, WE ARE.
