Poem: We Are All The Same
by Mustafa Siddiqui
Beneath the blanket, we are all the same
Under the skin, we are made of one frame
But many of us don’t realize
that of each other, we have little to despise
We know that God loves all men the same
so what’s stopping us from following in his name?
A united community will pave the way for success
but a divided one will give birth to challenges and distress
It's high time we address the elephant in the room
We should show compassion and love, but instead, we assume
Ask someone their name, and they’ll tell you their story
Give someone a name, and it will lead to anarchy
We must foster a society where no member is marginalized
For their skin tone, no human being should ever be penalized
It is clear as day that change is needed
And if we don’t at least try, we have already conceded
Our diversity is a blessing and it, we must guard
Let’s start by taking small steps in our very own backyard
