MORE SAME THAN DIFFERENT

MORE SAME THAN DIFFERENT

The air we breath
Is it black or white?

The water we drink
What colour is it?

All have a common source
Drank & breathed
By all

More same than different

When we bleed what colour
Is our blood?
Is it black for minorities?
And white
For non-blacks?
It is all red

More same than different

Geography
Accident of birth
Upbringing
Socio-cultural
Economic & political factors

Attempts to explain differences
Bridging the gaps
Understanding causes and outcomes
Is a start
To explain that we are

More same than different

Variety is preferred
To
Uniformity
Variety is the spice of life
Diversity
Is better than homogeneity

Origin of life
Birth or death

Same than different

We come from the womb
Are reduced to ashes
Or end up underground

More the same than different

We all eat & drink
Though some go
Hungry and thirsty

We all sleep & get up
Though some seldom sleep
And some never get up

But deep inside
We are all

Same than different

We are all human beings
Though
Some might think
They are more human than others

We are more same than different
Though
Some might think the reverse.
