A DISGRACE TO THE HUMAN RACE
a poem about the state of our human race in the 21st century
This is a disgrace
to our whole human race
No matter where I look
what I read
All I hear
is people fighting
always only about
who is better
you or me?
This is a disgrace
to our whole human race
We fight over color here
they kill over religion there
All I see
are you better than me?
This is a disgrace
our whole human race
Some say peace for all
yet race to kill
Some say love is equal
yet spew their hate
Can you not see?
Are we all blind?
No matter your color
your religion
No matter what language
you speak
No matter
your size
your gender
your age
your sexual orientation
your differences
no matter what
WE ARE ALL PART OF THE HUMAN RACE
Quit being a disgrace!

The Light Turns
It's Tuesday 7:13 a.m. A cold and clear November morning awaits Ray on his morning commute. Ray rubs his hands together in the front seat of his Subaru. He turns the air temperature up, but keeps the air on low until the air warms up. He looks at the backup camera screen and reverses the Subaru out of his driveway onto Trimble Road.
