i really don't get prejudice

i mean just the concept of it

how could you hate someone borne

by the same earth, the same fire

how could you explain someone else's life

as being worth less air than your own

i mean our lungs work the same don't they

we grasp the whole universe 

in our gaze but can't even look at our fellow beings 

and understand them as something other than not our own

i mean just the idea of it makes no sense

after we die,

won't all our skeletons look the same
