We are all one kind.

We are not all kind.

why.

I have never understood.

We’re all one kind,

and yet

we aren’t all kind.

We grow, we rest, we try,

we fall, together.

All together.

Humankind.

Kind human.

Different.

There’s a difference, but

should there be?

Let’s be someone,

a kind someone.

Only someone, not

someone’s.

We are all one kind.

We are not all kind.

My perspective is only one

of many, but

it seems as if humans almost

choose

to not be

kind.

Even though it burns more,

to not be

kind,

it doesn’t numb the pain,

it fuels it.

Fuels that awful

fire, that

manipulates

humans to not be

kind.

To not be

kind,

is to not be human.

We are all one kind.

We are not all kind.

When you are

kind,

you’ll notice it’s easier,

simpler.

Kindness removes

some of that

weight, extinguishes

some of that

fire.

Human,

kind.

We can be

both.

We should be

both.

We are

humankind.
