Will you make presumptions about who I am Based on whether my skin is white, black, or tan Or any shade for that simple matter Because I am white will you think I am fatter? When will the prejudice come to a close I know that I don’t wear my hair in corn rows But should that make people think I am not spiritual Or that I don’t take interest in the history of your people? Since I am Caucasian does it mean I am preppy Since I am an Asian does it mean I’ll be smart? Is it possible for a white man to not be crappy At all types of sports, and be good at art? Writing these things I don’t mean to be racist Just shine a light on all of the prejudice that exists And let everyone know that I think it is wrong That everyone can’t sing to the same song That people can’t get along… But what can I do I am only one man And it seems that you care If I am white, black, or tan. |

You put into words something that I have tried and tried to write down. Every time I have failed to put the proper words to it. With this poem you have captured the message, and given it to the world. I like it. |
