Biology

They say that men were made equal by Sam Colt and his .45,

But biology's been the great equalizer since people were alive –

and it will always be so, as long as all must one day die.

There are those who would claim a superior place, above others,

But the chaste still have lusts, the pacifists anger, even toward mothers.

The rich and the poor, the non-descript and the famous singers

Have the same number of kidneys, and a low cap on fingers.

Blood antigens span prejudice, in the same colors – for there are two.

Everyone's blood dances on the rainbow, from red to blue.

And race? Everyone's brown, not blue like smurfs or green like witches,

And even the Pope and the saints themselves suffer undignified itches.
