Siblings


People walk around as they laugh

as the others stand in alone as if a polygraph

test that the "others" takes blinks and beeps,

people not knowing how the "others" weeps

behind weak doors that hold back

emotion waiting to crack

"under pressure" like that song

getting stuck in your head all nightlong.

So a change that would change

the world to be arrange

is to judge less

and instead try to bless,

keep to yourself so you don't hurt others 

try to see them as sisters or brothers.
