Racism Should Be A Crime! ! !
Racism is a crime against humanity...
insane, crazy, and humiliating...
you are only embarassing YOUR OWN RACE
AND THIS IS SIMPLE, BUT TRUE! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

The Night Car
Im gonna close the door tight
Slamming my feet on the car floor
im gonna close my eyes, and pretend I've never been to the
liquor store
Im gonna roll my eyes hard
and think of something to do
Im gonna clutch my seatbelt hard
and shake my toes against my shoes
imma look out the window,
and see the shiny stars, and try to be
ANYWHERE else but this car
I know they can't hear me, and I know they can't hear
But im not gonna let the deaf, bring out some of my fear
Strong girls stand tall, they won't sit through this
But imma a little weak, so imma try my best with it

Shakespeare's little mistake...
Your sonnet,
Your cry
and your beautiful work
Is whats going to make me forget
about where you were with her?
Your grin,
your hug
and your 'poems from above'
Is supposed to make me forget about
your secret love
So you think a little Shakespeare, Neruda or
creation of your own
Is going to let me be ok with the road that you chose?
Well, Shakespeare, I am not a character from your play
I am not Juliet, and I will not beg you to stay
This is not a skit that you can do over again,
though Im not Lady Macbeth, I am not conceited

Inside you see something green
My outside is unassuming and blank
It is pretty when Im secure,
but when my shelter is broken, and
I see too much light
My ugliness shows
But I know when to hide,
b/c like the hulk
I turn green when something's not the same
and I have to walk a dark hall of shame
I see her there, my art, my talent, and my life
her pretty eyes, and pale white skin
that tortures me inside
then I become a color wheel.....
and eventually you see green
then I know my insides have escaped me
but I soon have to turn into the proud brown that I am
b/c someone told me about loving myself
& strong-and-fighting brown words seek
to fight the green away
