All... Poem by Eric Cockrell

All...

Rating: 3.5


all people just want
to be free, to be free..
white, black, Hispanic,
Asian, and Arabic...
chains an offense
to all that breathe...
one cannot be free
without the other!

there are no illegal people,
or invented people...
the least worth as much
as the most powerful.
put down your fat bellied guns,
and your patriotic rhetoric...
all are created in the image
of the eternal!

God created only two people......a man and a women! ......naturally no man is superior than the other....but yes, WE LIVE IN A CRAZY WORLD! superb poem Sir Eric.

So true, we are all born, we all die. That makes us all the same. A great poem.

when in blake's words......a robin redbreast in a cage puts all heaven in a rage....then if man, who is born free, ...wants to be free...then put down your fat-bellied guns....a very effective earnest message is conveyed...
