Hello everybody.I found this poem online, it was nominated for the best poem in Africa for 2005. I've had mixed reviewes on it from friends and family some say it;s amazing and some say it's horrible. I think it's quite clever and amusingg. But it's your choice, so tell me what you think.
When I grow up, I Black,
When I go in Sun, I
Black,
When I scared, I Black,
When I sick, I Black,
And when I
die, I still black.......
And you White fella,
When you
born, you Pink,
When you grow up, you White,
When you go in Sun, you
Red,
When you cold, you Blue,
When you scared, you Yellow,
When
you sick, you Green,
And when you die, you Gray.................
And
you calling me Colored ???????????"
Cheers,
