discrimination is


Discrimination's like a snake, it's teeth in poisoned prejudice, causing ache. Discrimination abolished all warmth and spirit and returned with a new hate relishing its pain brought never thought of halt. Hey discrimination's the new law stony and steel and square without feelings like a window frames of the hall in court. I wonder where the white's purity all gone. Tears and fears now the norm in the name of discrimination, now gladly has gone kicked out hard, square and fair..yet it left a hole in everyone's hearts. If i had a hammer i'd break down the walls of discrimination and if i had a match i'd burn down the prisons of punishments and pain. racism?? There is just one human race no matter what form of face.
