What Makes Us Equal Poem by Francis Duggan

What Makes Us Equal



What makes you and i equal to the known billionaire
We live in the same World and we breathe the same air
And they too are born as mortals and destined to die
Just a fact of life and fact never lie
No such a thing as a blue blood red our blood when we bleed
Rank and class distinction we may have but are of not in need
For the monarch and president there's a last night and day
This is how it is and it has always been this way
One should not judge you by the size of your bank account or car
One can only judge you by the sort of person you are
If you are always willing to help those of helping in need
Then you are a very good person indeed
What makes us equal to the president and monarch and the billionaire
Is that we are born to die and we breathe the same air
