It's funny how yin and yang represent interconnected forces,
yet its colours are a separation in society,
not for evil and good,
or darkness and light,
but black and white,
society is split between genes of pigment,
when we should be an interconnected figment;
a world where all minds work for a central brilliance.

We live in a world with belligerence televised,
so that the ignorant propaganda prospers through the colourblind,
society implies the wise to be forgettable
while putting people on the pedestal
who have lacked the drive to strive for a better tomorrow,
but instead accept the sorrow
of today and spout segregation
towards those with a passion for action
to make the world a better place.

The slant of your brow grants a complexion of aggression,
as you delay the progression of people over
race, ***, money, interests, religion,
your personal gain is priority over minorities,
we're equal yet you feel your genetic lottery gives you authority to ordinarily put down the mind of your peers.
We're all victim to the same illness as we inhale the same air, contaminated by the lies of a central despair,
in a society controlled by so many xenophobic fears.

But when Armageddon hits and Earth is engulfed by red-hot flame, these vultures will seep venom and be banished to the devil while better people beckon for a better world, better homes, more love, they will ensemble as a single entity,
and a better life will emerge for those who deserve
with their vision disillusioned
they may harbor the fruition of the new fruit,
while the unholy tarnish their racist ideals ruined,
the righteous will harness positivity within these new roots.

— The End —
