… fore sight

beautiful to me      
as it is to you,        
but through our hue                  
       
is a separate view,                  
       
skin for some        
is where it begins,        
ignorance not humanity,        
equality’s evil twin,                
       
in three hundred years                  
this era may end,        
all may have        
the same color of skin,                
       
but that’s no task        
for the hateful men,        
thats when ol renewed        
styles start to resend              
       
it’s human nature        
all over again,        
different looking ears,        
or an odd shape chin..                
       
different color eyes        
may rejuvenate a lie,        
or possibly it’s hair        
that get the hate stares..                
       
i’m sure there’ll be        
some blame to a seed,        
same type of feet        
in different shoes,                
       
the mentality of men        
will dial one in,        
the future for all        
the oldest of clues,        
       
until then my friend       
in front of you,                  
or at a distance                
there is no way to lose,        
         
the ol reliable has been              
the color of skin,        

it’s the most human way      
     
to choose.. ?!?

Author's Note
we are frighten and fragile creatures..
those that are able to see ..
are possibly worse off as far as being fearful of others then the actual visually impaired.
