Small as a peanut,
Big as a giant,
We're all the same size
When we turn off the light.
Rich as a sultan,
Poor as a mite,
We're all worth the same
When we turn off the light.
Red, black or orange,
Yellow or white,
We all look the same
When we turn off the light.
So maybe the way
To make everything right
Is for God to just reach out
And turn off the light!
Whether it be race, gender, ethnicity, or religious denomination, no one is above anyone else. Silverstein refers to sight as the commonality amongst society as the factor to demeaning others. By “turning off the light,” retrospectively, sight is taken away, therefore we cannot tell the difference between each other, making everyone equal. 

No Difference
