man? kind?
mankind
so blind
except
to own kind
no
not 'that' kind
which would be kind
to all kind
of mankind
own kind
in the context
of color
in the broad kind
own kind
in the context
of religion
in the broadest kind
own kind
in the context
of sect
in the narrow kind
own kind
in the context
of language
in the narrower kind
own kind
in the context
of class
in the even narrower kind
own kind
in the context
of political affiliation
in the narrowest kind
own kind
in the context
of sexual orientation
in the narrowest possible kind
now next time
don't tell me that this
species of animal
the so called mankind
is actually kind
for i am sick
of misnomers
of 'that' kind.
