Racism (Free verse) by Dovina

When a tiger's ripped your arm off and six have opened your belly head and heart all wounds now old and scarred then anything looking like a tiger makes you wary to say the least I am not a tiger as you suspect but only look that way an appearance I cannot change and you could know it too if you'd let me have some time But you cannot allow the risk and I will not pursue So warily we eye each other til someone makes a move

If your veneer of racial impartiality was anything other than skin deep, you'd have no trouble answering the question. But you can't answer it, because you can't even think the word 'Negro' without tiptoeing around the subject, terrified of exposing the slightest hint of prejudice. The only thing more astounding than your closet racism is your complete lack of integrity. -0-
