Captured light

In a pen.

Ink 

On paper

To pronounce

Intent

Atitude

Purpose.

How to divide

A word or world.

Just say what you 

Think

Capture it in ink

It will disperse,

It will fracture.

 

I've spent a life of time

Combating

What I think not fair

Lives are not fair

Lies are not either

But believe the lies

or see the side

the lies reside on.

 

It kills the captured light

Don't go back

Please dont go back

How can anyone believe

Lives are not equal?

My prejudice shows through

with that statement

As long as you think like I think

Lives are equal

We'll never be equal

Tolerant, hopeful

I can't condemn someone

For thinking as they do

Tehn lives won't be equal.

This is not really a poem just random muddering.
