We, the world, our cultures, our faiths
Our social experiences that influences and shapes
Our rhymes, and our themes, all our rules and our states,
That bends clear realities into tools that creates
Disfigured perceptions, and demons, and hates
And moves us like animals into pacts, and negates
All reasons and motives to love all and feel free
In minds, and in hearts, and in politics, and in dreams.

Diversity is beauty, perfections in myriad forms
Difference is courage to be one among all
Melanomas that shade range from ebony to white
And strands grow in all textures is irrelevant and trite
Eyes that look through the many mirrors of light
Shapes of all beings clothed in garbs that delights
Feet that walk roads on their own unique sites
Collecting their stories, a pilgrims insight

Those birth threads that feed us all utopic cake
Is whole, and complete and able to maintain
Yet chips of its goodness crumble and dissipate
During mountainous obstacles of life whiles it bakes
In ovens of childhood, and youth-filled heartaches,
Then the adult realization that the whole world is fake


The midlife rethinking assessing, rejuvenates
The part of our being that burned by mistake
The collection of stories are rare and concise
We recognize it’s repeated in so many lives
We find that these histories make us realize
There is no real difference from one another in life,
Just fears and some nonsense that taught us to wane
And move from the platform that make us all same.

There is an error
"Melanomas that shade range from ebony to white" darn corrective, of course I meant the pigment, not the cancer lol. It's meant to say
"Melanin that shades range from ebony to white"
It will not let me edit the original for some reason.

I mean coming from the UK I did not understand some of the words, It would be wonderful if you could tell me about its meaning so I could really appreciate it fully. Many thanks,
