We Hold These Truths Self Evident
Poem.
It is a concept before which Humanity must kneel
That all men and women are created equal
Not equal in the opportunities they haphazardly meet
Not equal in advancements or trials by fire of defeat
Not equal in the value they contribute to the world
Not equal in intelligence to navigate debate or quarrel
Not equal in the strength or vigor of each ones health
Not equal in their degree of accumulated wealth
Not equal in being well liked or sincerely despised
Not equal in organic life’s decision in who lives longest or who dies
Not equal in beauty of body or face
Not equal in temperament or levels of grace
But all men stand one and the same
To receive equal treatment as ”Due Process”
From laws governing fairness
A circumstance upon which Justly laws must insist
If we are to make our way to true Justice
And all men stand equal in their degree of Human Rights
And are advised never to relinquish them without a legal fight
That amongst these are the right to life
To be able to continue to live
That amongst these are the use of a harmless liberty
And when harmless something immoral for others
To imagine they can take or give
That amongst these is the moral right
To the pursuit of a harmless happiness
The same goal all religion and philosophy propose and confess
Although they never agree on the right pathway
Which is any-body’s right to guess
