The Human Race
I know that it is cliche to say
That if I could change one thing
I would end hate
I know it's an easy choice
an obvious answer
But I would make it so that humans can't see
The things that make us all different
We are the human race
We are all the same
The God we worship, the gender we live as, the sexuality we are
The ethnicity we were born to
This doesn't change the simple fact
That we are human
Everyone
Some dogs have spots
Some dogs are black some are white, brown or red
Some dogs have floppy ears
Some dogs have short tails, some dogs have long noses
But they are all dogs
And we are all humans
You asked me what I would change
And I answered the obvious
But if I could change one thing
I would make it so we cannot see
Country lines, skin colors, sexuality, gender or creed
I would make it so that when we looked at each other
The only thing we could see was a Human Being
Just a person
like you or me
And if I could change one thing
I would make it so we could all live on the earth, under the great blue sky
Equals, and hate free
Forever sharing our love, and extending to all our other brothers and sisters
the right to human dignity
and equality
