SKIN

 

if image is not important

and all are created equal

then why is there a problem

with homo, bi, hetero - sexuality

 

what is there to understand

about who we love

and upon whom

we may bestow affection

 

why should "same" love

fight for acceptance

when it is truly

only in skin we are clothed
