It is an expression of some deeply personal conflicts, and a plea to those prone to rush to judgment.
————————————————————-

When does it all stop -
Embracing this foul hatred -
From so far away?

Arrogance or pride?
What makes it so plain for you -
That which puzzles me?

Would you stone them all -
Adulterers, perverts, queers?
Can YOU cast the first?

Suffering the same
You and I are no different
We can both feel pain

We both have a heart
With truth it only opens
With hate it slams shut

Water, carbon, more -
We are made from the same dust,
Brother and sister
