WHY DO PEOPLE HATE?, Poetry by Felicia L. Smith

Genre: Discrimination

“WHY DO PEOPLE HATE?”

Why do people hate one another
Simply because of their skin?
Whether black or white, whether brown or yellow
We all bleed red from within.

Why do people hate one another
Because of their lack of much cash?
Because they’re not rich and driving a fancy car
Doesn’t mean they should be treated like trash.

Why do people hate one another?
Equality has caused an uproar.
Like it or not, it is a reality.
It’s something we can not ignore.

Why do people hate one another?
A waste of energy throughout the day
With all the problems we have in this country
Stop hating, stay humble, and pray.

~Felicia L. Smith~
