THE MYTH OF EQUALITY

Am I equal to Albert Einstein?

Am I equal to Usain Bolt?

Do these questions (just two samples)

Give your intellect a jolt?

Am I equal to Her Majesty

Or Jeff Bezos and his cash?

Rupert Murdoch with his empire?

Sense says such claims are rash.

Being equal before the law...

With talent given opportunity

These two we shouldn't ignore 

For the reality of social unity

Dispense with the policy of polity

And the myth it calls equallity.

People are not even equal at birth, influenced by wealth and privilege. Yet these things matter little when the line is crossed, as we've seen with recent high-level cases.
