Vision


We all look at the world through a different filter.

For some, that filter is racism.

For others, sexism.

Our vision is distorted by our biases

Sexuality, culture, religion, wealth, age…

The list goes on and on.

Wars, murders, broken families, injustice.

Imagine a world free of cracked lenses

Liberated from intolerance.

Minority groups would be valued

Equality would reign

Wars would cease

Homelessness, hatred, genocide

Would all come to an end.

Take off your corrupt glasses, friends!

And in doing so,

Let us change the world.
