Someone Else's Shoes

Two people- alike,
may never connect because of their contrast.

Growing blind to equality
is one of the world’s greatest distortions.

They warp each other’s words
to incriminate any opposition
and victimize themselves
in a sad attempt at self righteousness.

You could blame either side of a double edge,
but both sides are fitting to destroy who they face.

Every controversial campaign
is a deadened heart
facing an empty argument.

Equality isn’t the intention today,
nor has it ever been.

The intention is to turn vindictive,
forget forgiveness,
then be on the look out for no one
but number one.

Self-indulgence is difficult to look past,
but it is possible to understand an antagonist.

To live with the understanding
that everyone has some sort of justification
for their behavior.

The problem is,
there are few willing
to take a step inside.
