I Dream A World By Langston Hughes

I dream a world where man
No other man will scorn,
Where love will bless the earth
And peace its paths adorn
 I dream a world where all
Will know sweet freedom's way,
Where greed no longer saps the soul
Nor avarice blights our day.
A world I dream where black or white,
Whatever race you be,
Will share the bounties of the earth
And every man is free,
Where wretchedness will hang its head
And joy, like a pearl,
Attends the needs of all mankind-
Of such I dream, my world!

Feelings ( Can be your conflicts)

Feelings

Never thought feelings could break u down like that,

now when I see a girl hit my line

ima hold back,

just cause im black doesnt mean I rob stores,

sick and tired of people being racist and making dogs fight

so I tried to hold me back.

Cats have lives

dogs have feet

humans have food and africa has sand,

but we all the same,

tho we don’t show emotion

doesn’t mean we don’t have feelings.

Black people shooting

white people pashing

freaks playin games

and builders keep thinking,

that all shows emotion in ways u dont understand.
