Discrimination Here's You Come and Go
Discrimination’s like a snake
Its teeth in poisoned prejudice,
Causing ache
Discrimination abolished all warmth and spirit
And returned with a new hate
Relishing its pain brought
Never thought of halt
Hey
Discrimination’s the new law
Stony and steel and
Square without feelings
Like window frames
Of the Hall
In court
I wonder where the White’s Purity all gone.
Tears and Fears
Now the norm
In the name
Of discrimination
now
Gladly Discrimination has gone
Kicked out hard,
square and fair
Yet-
It left a hole
In everyone’s hearts.

Discrimination
Racism a nasty word
that conjures thoughts
of oppressive deeds
made by man because
of creed.
Discrimination another one
that binds our minds
and sharpens tongues
because of some elitist thought
that's unjust and plainly wrong.
Fighting wars because of God?
Trampling on the underdog.
But we have legislation
to banish discrimination.
'Equal opportunity'
is the current phrase; our incantation.
The rules and laws
are needed where
some of us would dare
to think in ways that denigrate
others on this Earth; our place.
Racism? There is just one human race
no matter what form the face.
And discrimination
a faculty we all posses
to separate what's bad from best.
Discrimination would be good
if it were used for what it does;
revealing what unites ALL of us.

Racist: I Have Saw Discrimination
Don't be a hater, a racist, evil
because I SAW discrimination
One day not so long ago a white man walked into a cafe'
and rudely asked a BLACK man to leave the seat
WELL! ! ! ! the BLACKman turned around and started composing one of
the most beautiful but unknown speeches in that time
'Sir when you were born you were pink,
when you're sick you're green
when you die you'll be pale
when you're angry you're red
and when you're hurt you're blue!
When I was born i was BLACK,
when i'm sick i'm BLACK
when i die i'll be BLACK
when i'm angry i'm BLACK
and when i'm hurt i'm BLACK
YOU know that and you dare to make a deal of my color?
That was what discrimination deserves
Everything is done for a reason
And i saw discrimination so i could tell YOU

We've Come Not Far Enough...
Why are they judged?
A scale. Kinsey… 1-6.
A figure… No more, No less…
Is there so much difference?
Something to fix?
1 is the norm,
that's what is said,
But if it were to change…
Straight. Dead
What then?
An End.
Time to Bend.
Switch around,
would there be a choice?
Discrimination reversed, Old Normality.
A submissive voice.
Silenced. Tired.
The feelings, repressed and hidden,
yet never ruled to be forbidden.
Why then, do some enjoy,
Putting down those whose lives they destroy?
We've come so far…
Yet Laws are new… Rights are few...
Insults and critics should get their due.
Time for acceptance.
Discrimination? Adieu.
Yet will it be enough?
For history is known to repeat itself…
Unless we pay attention.
Strengthen our retention.
Feel not a sense of Déjà vu.

Where is Socialism?
Be a banyan or onion,
The plant shows all its blades to the sun.
No inability, no discrimination.
Be a pine or a vine,
The plant pumps water to all its parts.
No inability, no discrimination.
Yet they studied not any socialism.
We, the socialists, default.

Dark Fairy
Abomination, disruption to
Ethical code, spawns discrimination.
Dreams wither and die.
She is the hatred child.
Happy I am.
Gay fulfilled.
Hell no! Sacrilege.
Stone the plague.
Downtrodden, retrograde.
She is Lucifer’s babe.
Homosexuality is the soar of Satan.
Maggot infested.
Tend it with acid, hate, discrimination,
death before it becomes a threat.
Mother’s sinister nature.
Father’s veil intent.
In the name of Satan.
Lets kill all of them.
Discrimination our only friend.
Slaughter the lepers.
Bleach their heathenous tongues.
Melt their livers, castrate
and puncture their lungs.
They must pay for their wrongs.
My sister the outcast.
Paid for sin with her life.
Dark fairy, Gods love
Ended her life.
That’s why I don’t pray at night.

Measures to allow race and gender to be considered
for decisions on promotion better agencies on hiring!
promotion, public schools enrollment! and to reverse
discrimination and affirmative action programs to ensure
a fair criteria for all human applicants!
Available jobs to be advertised for Both men and women!
We need afffirmative action to create a level playing field!
And no more some may not receive the advantage they've

And no racial discrimination and preference have no priviledge
remedy for discrimination never more, no never, for ever,

Black And White Makes Grey...
If I was to snap my fingers and everyone turned black
How would we be any different from one another?
If I was to snap my fingers and everyone turned white
How would we be any different from one another?
We wouldn't be different.
We could walk down the street
and no one would 'think' any differently.
So all the discrimination and deaths over the years
are just superficial?
Please tell me that people are not that shallow..
tell me that all those people didn't die
just because they have more melanin in their skin
or because their eyes were a different shape..
or because their hair is curly.
Tell me people didn't die just because
I didn't snap my fingers.
If I had, and we were all the same colour..
would there have been the word..discrimination.
Are we really that shallow? ? ! !

Our Nation
Does it really matter what your religion is;
Or the color of your skin?
What church you attend on sunday,
or the neighborhood you live in?
Is the car you drive really important?
Does it make the man or woman inside?
Does any thing in this world truely matter?
Can you take it to the other side?
Something is wrong with our nation today,
we seem to have lost all common sense.
We no longer stand united,
we use discrimination as our defense.
We try to exhault our selves higher,
then everyone else we see;
We try to prove we are better inside,
but our selves we can not decieve.
Let us put an end to the hatred,
lets' put discrimination in the past;
Let us restore our nation to greatness,
with a greatness that will surely last.

Default Judgement
Discrimination, your intention to scar me
Discrimination, your assessment, penalty
I suffer!
Spiteful resolutions, by your sentence we must fall
Spiteful resolution, bitter thought destroy us all
We suffer!
Your final judgement stands
Fate, by your will
I never had a chance
I never will
By your default judgement everyone has suffered
Your pointless judgement caused everyone to ...
Suffer!
Your final judgement stands
Fate, by your will
I never had a chance
I never will
(Day in which god judged humankind)
Your final judgement stands
Fate, by your will
I never had a chance
I never will
Never...

Conventions! !
I hate conventions!
I do hate conventions! !
Caged is creativity..
Irate becomes innovativity..
I hate conventions!
It's exasperating
It's frustrating
Rust-enhancing
Talent-annihilat ing
I hate it...
revolving around Black-Hole 'standards'
I hate it...
causes discrimination of being 'avant-garde'
Art is for expression
For thought-emanation
For beautiful imagination
Nothing is hideous in field of art
all unify, blend and makes...
Jigsaw puzzle's missing part!

Make me feel dumb
Neither will she make me feel dumb
Nor will she show me exit or thumb
It is true that it is male dominated
But fact can not be circumvented
So long they were under strong domination
Either by way of gender discrimination
Or by way of racial discrimination
Nothing remains to be seen with explanation
The truth has to be presented in real context
It has to be researched and thrown open for contest
It will have far reaching consequences
Lot more can be learnt after drawing inferences
Well preserved data may throw useful light
Many may witness some tilt and feel it right
Female may do lot more amidst bias
They have no other go then to share place on dais
Let research go on without any hindrance
Let more females participate at once
It may have definite weight and impact
It may benefit at large on the subject

We Kill...
we kill...
more people with the stock market,
than we've killed in all the wars!
with every gallon of gas we pump,
with the food we throw away.
with pain pills, crack, and meth,
with pornographic fingers.
with prejudice and discrimination,
and most of all, with religion!
with self obsession,
and the need to own.
with apathy and blindness.
with 'I, me, mine' grasping,
with judgements bound
by concepts derived from fears...
without thinking, without feeling,
without caring!
we kill...
