A Poem by Joshua Amos Graff

Can you see beyond
What you believe is a sea
Though in reality
Is a tiny trickle
Expanded only
In the minds 
Of those who were fooled

Cross that tiny gap
Break the barriers 
Of the past
And find the truth
Of our human connection

We are not a small 
Band of bloody brothers
Or a class of kin 
Classified by our borders 
And the color of our skin

We are a collective
Cut from the same cloth
Of history
The same chain 
Of DNA

We are human 
To be loved and accepted
Not feared or rejected

We are children
Living within
The limited life span

We are not one clan
Against a million
But one tribe
That counts seven billion
plus

The vast oceans are a tiny drop compared to what is out there.
Upper class. Middle class. It doesn't exist, really. They're just brands that have been given to divide us as a species.
The third and fifth stanzas were my favourites.
