Blame the father or the mother <br />Or the feet of big brother <br />When siblings grow up wrong <br />Pick hateful words as their song <br />Where does prejudice come from? <br />Is it genetic to inherit its loud drum? <br />The apple does not fall far from the tree <br />And stereotype a humankind flea <br />Then am I not as guilty for picking on <br />The flea, much was written pro and con <br />The flea has no moral codes to follow <br />But instincts to feed and wallow <br />What makes human beings different? <br />They understand the power of referent! <br /> <br />March 1 2014 <br />Copyright Leaking Pen 2014<br /><br />Leaking Pen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/prejudice-27/
