    We All Bleed Red(Featured on http://www.stop-the-hate.org)
    by: Kate Trice(aka Raine Kvala)


    I walk into a restaurant
    for a sub and a coke
    I see you girls you sneer
    you laugh and you joke
    you judge me
    by my skin
    without knowing
    the me within
    you make comments
    most unjust
    because my paleness
    you don't trust
    I show my love
    in the way
    my heart says I must
    You hate me
    because of my man's skin
    but let me tell you this
    my man, has a pure heart
    you need to wise up
    and realize this fact
    it is the 21st century
    remember this to get back on track
    a fact
    we all must concede
    when you are cut
    what color do you bleed?
    In the grave
    it won't matter much
    whether you are pale
    or you are dark
    we might just be neighbors
    you and I in that cemetery park
    When we get sick
    we go to the same place
    the doctor, the hospital, the morgue
    and when we are cut
    what color do we bleed?
    Yes, I give my love to a black man
    and yes I have white skin
    but if you take the time to heed
    you will see
    when we are cut what color do we bleed?
    we all bleed
    RED

    Good poem, but punctuation would make it flow much better.

    Thank you for the poem [​IMG] It was really nice and made me smile [​IMG] I followed the link to the webste and I'm looking at that too. I wish all that hate would realise we're all living, feeling, breathing people on this planet together forever.

    Peace
