a cordial invite

to a brunch in meeting new people

would lead to building frienships

instead, the reception that was receive felt like a treaty of partisanships

where we just didn't belong

treated like outcasts

as if we were in a klu klux klan territiory

but funny though

none of those people weren't wearing a white mask and robe

they look like me, a latino

they look like my best friend, a black man

and then you had those racist white people 

that was quite the inevitable when they looked at us with disgust

as if we had AIDS

there was infectious disease that was spreading

call hatred

although there is no known cure for AIDS

there is a cure for hatred

it's call love and humanity

where it's ok to say hello and how you doing

nowadays, courtesy is foreign like learning another language

here's a language we can all learn

it's call equality

you know 

we all have the right to pursue happiness

we all bleed red

if you don't believe that, poke yourself and see what color comes out

ask a different person to do the same and see what color comes out

whether we like it or not, we are all one

sadly, we allow society to condition us with illusions of fabrications

you know, if you are dark, you're ugly, you're light, you're pretty

knappy hair, totally gross, straight hair, surreal because it's not real

the usual idiocies

tension mounted up and i dont even know these people

it was time to go

i fled the scene as if a crime was committed

a crime did occur; racism

and it's 2014

yet, we continue to enslave ourselves with injections of ignorance

that continues to poison us with hostility
