Racism Is Around Me Everywhere
Of human ignorance I am almost in despair
For racism is around me everywhere
But like they say sheer ignorance is bliss
Just like Judas betrayed Jesus with a kiss.
Some people carry their honour in a flag
And of their Nationality they brag
They feel superior and they differentiate
And against those who are different they discriminate.
So many people still judged by their race
For such there never ought to be a place
'A fair go' those untruthful words I do recall
There is no such a thing as a 'fair go for all'.
Though we live in a so called democracy
Of racism we never will be free
They judge you by where you come from and the colour of your skin
For many equality and respect seems impossible to win.
It's been awhile since the days of Martin Luther King
His name to it has a familiar ring
If against racism he did not choose to strive
Today the great man he would be alive.
So many holding the reins of power not spiritually aware
And racism is around me everywhere
And racism only leads to division and war
Just goes to show how ignorant some are.

Racism has a human heart....
Racism has a human heart,
An artery of cruelty & death,
It has blood of anger, & evil
,
Has a force of pain & antipathy.
Racism has a human mind
.
An Intellect of terror & delusion,
Has an emotion of extreme savage
Imagination of vile ideas, macabre.
Racism has a human mouth,
It has tongue of torture, depravity,
Many teeth of brutal incision & kill
Has a lip of sorrow, hate & death.

Recognizing Rejecting Racism
yes I know what you mean
yes I understand how you feel
yes some events in world history...
should never be forgotten
should always be remembered
least this evil happens again...
but two wrongs do not make a right
reverse racism is still racism
bigotry prejudice intolerance injustice
racism in any form
is a crime against
culture ethnic diversity
our entire race humanity

Bigotry Creates Brutal False Illusions
take ego out of cruelty loathed racism
strip supremacy from intolerant racism
beware whirlpool of self projections
bigotry creates brutal false illusions
prevents us from seeing reflections
vicious ruthless malice dread racism
is an atrocity eyesore virtue detests
