Excerpt from the poem: 6 POUNDS
One will kill another based on the color of his skin, the color of his clothes or the pendant dangling from his chain and yet, we all bleed red. If you remove 6 pounds, we are indistinguishable from one another. 6 pounds is roughly the weight of the skin – remove it from all of us and then tell me who doesn’t deserved to be treated fairly, who doesn’t deserved a job, and who should go back to where they came from?
Are we not all from the same place? In Genesis 1:27 when God “Created man in His (own) image, in the image of God … male and female…” Do you really think that meant everyone but your neighbor?
