What is equality?

How can we pursue something we do not understand.

It’s like trying to play the piano under the ocean.

You play the keys, but the notes are distorted by the crashing waves.

They laugh at us with every judgemental ripple as it reaches the shore.

They taunt us, Block out our own kind of rapturous tones.

Their degenerate chimes of the storms and seas try to swallow up our existence.

We continue to play as the sand beings to shift under our feet.

We are determined to be heard playing louder, and harder.

Our sound will reach millions waiting to be free,

because the piano is played with both black and white keys.
