i have renounced my race.
my pale body does not glow
and i am at unease in a room of white men.
i imagine their hands on a black mans great grandmother.
as their mouths call each other NIGGA
like its all okay.
i wish they could see through my skin,
the facade of an apathetic white girl who cares more for drinking then worldly disease.
their disease becomes my dis ease.
if god did create man and woman.
and adam and eve were white..
where do my lovers come from?
my soul mate?
did god fuck up royally?
i have learned.
you are not the skin youre in.
but the world i am in has not.
and my heart sinks to think
i will not see a day where i am proud to be what i was born.
