Blurred Lines By: Eugene Harvey

Race is a needless remembrance 
a man-made burden of dishonor 
an imperfect misnomer of men
wherewith we are all subjugated

Race is a faux theoretic phantasy 
a subliminal bad seed implanted
intentionally to foster variance
declaring we’re not all the same

Race is a journey of diverseness 
of wonderful genetic genealogy 
wherein no human is an island 
stainless nor forever unashamed

Race is a miraculous mutuality 
a habitat of symbiotic meaning
an exploration of commonality
perfected in the human genome

Race is a series of blurred lines
a rainbow of innumerable colors
mingled together in harmony
of life’s promise of co-existence
