Brothers


A century before, Not quite a distant enough memory brother fought brother on an all too familiar soil. The only winners were those Who were freed from bondage But not quite relieved Of systematic oppression. Then a hundred years later, Brother joins brother In a righteous crusade For civil rights. Though an ongoing struggle, We have seen the light And acheived the deliverance Of equality among Brothers.
