Black Lives Matter?
Black lives matter?
Well of course they do
Same with Native American, Mexican,
Japanese and Korean too.
Though to this thinking
there's a small blight
I guess I don't matter
because I'm white
Yes, I know
Traditionally, we "rule"
But I am to be punished
because my ancestors were fools?
Never has skin
made any difference to me
But I face hate
Now they're against me
I don't understand
What I've done wrong
I just want a world
Where everyone belongs
Please let me know
Please let me see
I've never hated you
Why do you hate me?
This poem is about:
Me
My community
My country
Our world
