Poems of Mine

Kind of a rant I guess?

And so I asked
"Why are you racist?"

They said
"I'm not"

I replied
"Is that so? Then explain to me your distaste for anyone with a darker pigmentation then your own.
Explain to me the reasoning for the confederate flag waving proudly in the wind on the back of your truck.
And then I will repeat my question; why are you racist?
Because the fact that you deny it makes it pretty clear that the only reason you have is that your father, and his father,and his father before that, felt this way.
And somehow it has been passed down to you like a pair of worn out jeans, or a genetic disease."

And again they tried to deny it
Without realizing that by doing so, they were further proving my pont.

-And so I will not ask you guys to stop feeling whatever you want to feel but I will ask you to please not be so inconsiderate as to fight so passionately for something you don't even know the purpose for. Is it not just a complete waste of everyone's time, including your own?-
