Heal the World;I am not a colour.

In reaction to the recent shootings of black unarmed men lately and on the issue of colour discrimination generally, I felt the need the write this 7am Thursday morning.
My post of Gender discrimination can also be seen tagged "Wife Beater"
#NoToColourDiscrimination #NoToGenderDiscrimination #NoToWomenAbuse.

   I have a series of questions bordering all ages,
   Nonetheless not restricted to a particular race,
   Which is directed to every human in space,
   That it finds it's way through our mind's intricate maze,

   Shall we discriminate against rainbows in the sky because they have different shades?
   No,we marvel at how each colour was intricately and wonderfully made,
    Awed by the peculiarity and singularity of each colour that brightens our day.

    Why then should we discriminate against our own different colours,
    Let's go by Charles Darwin's theory of evolution,
    If every organism arose from a single organism by divergent evolution,
  Or became a single organism by  convergent evolution,
  And they found to separate due to natural selection to avoid extinction,
  Can they not be traced on a single family tree?

  Based on science we were driven apart by assaults of asteroid rocks,and not machine guns,
  Divided and shifted us apart,Inadvertently my ancestors found themselves at the equator,
  Where they encountered adverse conditions,
  Their offsprings were forced to adjust,
  again by science, adaptation, every organism must adapt to it's environment,
   A necessity driven by the need for survival,

   However I believe not-entirely- in evolution,
   But in the supreme being who made all things,
  As Genesis said;and he looked at the works of his hands and saw that it was beautiful,
 
   So in a circular argument,
  All Americans, Europeans, Asians, Africans,and Australians belong to the same race,
  A race not defined by colour,nor by location of continent,
  A very important bond binds us as the "Human Race",
  We all agree that apples have different shades,
  However they all belong to the same species,
  We belong to the same species,the most advanced," Homo sapiens"
 
   We are not defined by skin,
  For we are brethren of the same kin,but lost in the battle for supremacy,
   Raising one another for by one with the pair of aces,
   And whilst some fold,others call at the risk of being busted by the man who raises,
   Do not forget,two aces,though the highest of cards is but one pair,
   There are nine other combinations possible,
   With these said,I am not going to spend my life being a colour.
