Why Hate?

by Maurice 

Would you hate a tree? 

For having blue leaves instead of green? 

Would a dog be more dangerous? 

If it had black fur instead of white? 

Why would you hate a human?

For having dark skin instead of light? 

Would a person be more dangerous? 

If there skin is brown or dark as night? 

If they were from the Middle East? 

If they were from Mexico?

As if their appearance makes them dangerous.

or less than another...

Everyone has a potential to do good...

As well as evil..

Everyone...

So why would you hate?
