We are all the same



We are humans no matter what 
Our skins say different things about us 
Most may think one skin is better than the other
Most people don’t care 
People characterize others based on their skin 
But we are all different 
Its not the skin that matters it’s what’s inside 
We are all the same 
The world tends to treat people based on their skin 
The society we live in treats based on anything 
Our generation thinks changing their skin is a thing 
But its not at all 
Our skin is the representation of our forefathers. 
How they lived, and how they cared for each other
How they met new people, how they survived in their “society”
We are all the same 
We should be humble 
Be as happy as birds 
And have the same connection like the flowers
For we are all the same

It's Better To Just Stay Inside

It’s better to just stay inside Covid-19 The thing causing us to super-clean, The words ring in my ears Because they cause terror and fear They strike up rage in some while in others insanity, Buying all the toilet paper out of vanity, They leave nothing for those who are sane, And actually try to use their brain But this virus doesn’t discriminate All it needs to kill is a weakened immune state, It’ll strike to end young and old, So the most at risk are the ones entering and closest to leaving this world The media tells us to run and hide, That it’s better to just stay inside, They say that safety comes from social distancing But the lack of contact is causing some people's sanity to start dwindling 6 feet apart, that’s the number we’ve been given, Now that puts some in a very awkward position, People are almost treated as if they were zombies, Avoided at every cost, especially if they’re sickly For those who are essential and are stil

ask

write about an issue, i was asked. it's a simple topic really. we discuss what we think is  so wrong, so right, so often, so we write our answers. “wear something less revealing” “don’t be so ghetto” “if you didn’t eat a bat” “you’re just asking for it” “your braids aren’t professional” “boys will be boys” answers we think we know to questions we’ve never cared to ask. ask the black girl why she still gets teased at school for her braids. ask the muslim girl why she flinches when anyone outstretches their hand towards her hijab. ask the black boy why he’s afraid of being pulled over, never driving over the limit. ask the middle eastern boy why he’s “randomly” checked at security. ask the chinese girl why she’s being attacked for an illness she doesn’t even have. ask me why i’m not scared of having an eight-hour investigation while crossing the border. ask me why i’m not yelled at in the streets for something i didn’t do. ask me

We Are Not A Virus

“I’m beginning to be so ******* tired of you CHINKS” “Stomach is turning y'all make me sick” “Just go back to Wuhan, wherever you come from” “Been holding this in I can no longer be calm” “Put a mask on your mouth I’m stomping you out with these shoes that were made by you” If you saw the Bleed and all the  Creeps on the streets Would you reach out or the rather  Turn the other cheek Everybody be like “Me won’t think differently” It gets funny Now we in the zombie scene Killing each other before the skin turns green Fear-mongering Now they be partying True colors surfacing  when the world’s suffering As we speak disease accelerates Exactly the excuse They use to spread the hate Mind is what it usually contaminates Look into their eyes That’s where you find the real plague Infecting the weak minds to discriminate Spreading faster than bacteria for sickness’ sake Why you gotta put a tag on it in the first place Don’t w
