Poem / Multi

People been blinded by what they’ve watch , read and surroundings
News on TV , blog posts , facebook posts , tweets
Radio , newspaper , flyers , kedai kopi talks
Religious talks , politic talks , and talks
Without do a little homework to do some research
They believe on what they’ve watch , read and heard
At the first place
And the thing about that is
They might be wrong
Nothing’s wrong by being wrong
But once they’re condemning someone else’s
Belief , faith and opinion
That’s wrong
You should’ve read and learn about respect
Respecting people’s belief , faith and opinion
And this is why societies play a huge role on this
To taught a kid to respect at a very young age
You see
The thing about our school system is
They’re pretty much racist , discriminate
Based on my experience
When I was in Form 4 , during History and Malay Literature classes
The teacher been pointing out that
“ Haa , kalau awak nak rasa senang di bumi sendiri , jangan bagi muka
sangat dekat orang bukan Melayu. Depa pendatang ”
Is this what a government school teacher should taught their student ?
Not to mention during Civic and Religious Study classes
The reaction towards other religion was
“ Diaorang ni tak boleh fikir ke yang agama dia tu sesat ? ”
People have their own belief and faith
And all you can do is spread a good words of your religion
Sometimes I’ve been wondering
What should be a priority in fighting for our rights ?
Is it races or religion ?
There’s Malay who is non-practising Muslim
And there’s Chinese and Indian who is practising Muslim
So my point is , what’s important is
To ensure we’re living in peace and harmony in this country
As a multi-everything country
