Hey you with the beard, are you Muslim? Why does it matter what ever you believe? You who wears the cross, are you a Christian? What does it say about you? Are you honest are you true? Do you follow the commandments laid down by your lord? You with turban on, are you a Sikh? What are you hunting? Hey you in the short skirt with makeup layered thick, Are you ****** Tell us quick. We need to know. You in the chair with wheels on. How did you get there? Unless you choose to tell us we shouldn't care. Need to make judgements? You in the cassock, Are you a bishop? Chick in the habit, are you a nun? Could just be fancy dress, A hen party. A nun on the run. You with ebony skin... Are you that different to me ? I think not. Gay guys and lesbians, transgender guys, transgender chicks. Think before throwing sticks and stones. And breaking bones. Words hurt. Under the skin the being within...is HUMAN. Attitudes decided by images externally. Be who you want. Just gotta be free. Does it change the person inside? Think of these questions before you decide. (c)Livvi MMCV
