Whether Martin, Malcolm
Jack or Bobby
there will never be but one.
These men were few
their dreams were great
their jobs did not get done.
Taken too soon
by bullets all
killed for their beliefs.
Equality would have to wait
will it ever come?
Will another arise
to carry the torch?
Will someone continue
to beat equalities drum?
If by chance it does one day
and all are viewed as equal,
brotherhood could finally come
we might start living peaceful.
As we look forward to that day
there's something we all can do,
treat each other equally
spend some time in another's shoes.
