I’ve toil’d all ov’r the earth, <br /> <br />looking for the real equality; <br /> <br />I find none but inequality. <br /> <br />I have also labour’d for it to come to its fullest; <br /> <br />lo, what I see is perpetual corruption! <br /> <br />That makes me ask: <br /> <br /> ‘Is folly plac’d in all high places? ’ <br />But my humble self replies: <br /> <br /> ‘No, that must be a mistake.’ <br /> <br />Now, I’m optimistic for man’s rights – <br /> <br />I’m sure they will come in our generation.<br /><br />Eche Ononukwe<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-ve-travers-d-all/
