One Person Two Person White Person Black Person Asian Person Indian Person Old Person New Person This one has no food to eat, This one has a war to beat. Say! What a lot of people there are. Some are dead, Some have no bed, Some even have no roof over their head. But why are they Separated from each other? I wouldn’t know, Go ask another. Some are thin, Some are tall, Some are fat, And some can even be quite small. From there to here, from here to there. Trump wants to create walls, So, we can’t travel anywhere. To get water, Some have to travel, Barefoot, on sharp gravel. For miles and miles They have to travel. White, Black, White, Black. White, Black, White, Black. All distinguished from the colour of their back. Some have two friends, Some have one, Some have ten friends, Some have none. Where do we come from? A long, long way. From a war place, Come here to be safe. We see them come, We see them go. Some come legally, Some come by boat. Some are tall, And some are short. We’re all different, But we’re all human. Yet, we’re singled out, Just because we’re men or women. Why?! Is it okay to scream and shout? Lesbian, Straight, Bi or Gay. Is it good to call someone out? Did you think it was okay? Black, White, Old, New, Gay, Straight, Man, Woman, Asian, Indian, American, African, Don’t you realise we’re all human? Human! It’s not a reason to be rude, Just because I am different to you.
