A bird sings her song
and a crow is a bird
so why do we hate
when he tries to be heard?

A butterfly flies
and plays with its wings
but when wasps fly high
we just notice their sting

A likeable dolphin
jumps high above waves
but for tuna the fate
is small metal graves

White boys, so pretty,
they jump and they dance.
Next to them a black boy
does not have a chance

So look at each other
through skin and through bones
because every man
has a spirit he owns.
