Array ( [sid] => 97915 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => HATE, PREJUDICE, BETRAYAL [time] => 2005-06-13 15:19:54 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Butterflies don't really fly
Fish don't really swim
Cheetahs walk instead of run

What is wrong in this world

People aren't treated equally
As they were created to be
And still to some,
Color matters

HATE , PREJUDICE, BETRAYAL

Who knew three words could mean so much

HATING someone enough to kill them
JUDGING people by the color of their skin
BETRAYING someone who loves you

What happened to HATE being a strong word
And never JUDGE a book by its cover
Or til death do us part

HATING, JUDGING, BETRAYING
Breaks all the rules

Maybe they were never meant to be followed

I like this...not all of us break the rules though, hun. I hate the way the world is.

It's unfortunate, but it seems to be reality. All we can do is try to change it for the better.

Great write hun, there is truth in it.

When did you ever become so smart LOL?

I really liked this Amy, you are right people still do treat others with the color of their skin. It's not right but that's how the world is right now.

We could only hope for the better. Amazing write Amyita.

Love,

Very moving piece. This represents the questions that many people in this world pose to themselves and each other every day.
