There are good and bad people in every race and creed <br />And racism is a thing the human race does not need <br />Prejudice and mistrust to war only lead <br />And red is the colour of the blood we all bleed. <br /> <br />We do not need racists since they cause offence <br />And nothing good can be said in their defence <br />Consumed by their hatreds their spirit is small <br />We salute those who stand for a fair go for all. <br /> <br />There is no such a thing as a superior race <br />And the fair go for all the fair minded embrace <br />On your feelings on prejudice leave none in doubt <br />Against racism don't be afraid to speak out. <br /> <br />In the Human World there's no one race to the fore <br />We are only mere mortals that and nothing more <br />To the scythe of the reaper we eventually must fall <br />So here's to egalatarianism and a fair go for all.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/we-do-not-need-racists/
