The Blackest Black

Flow with me along the rivers of common sense, eroding the riverbeds of tribalism and racism, revitalising the very essence of man's existence. Flow with me you will get the sense. Dine with me on the table of realism and enjoy the fruits of collectivism. Because you donot see beyond races and tribes, you will call me *****. Because you think with limitations, you will see me inferior. You wil diffuse your ego in your own biased prejudices because you do not see beyond the physical. Because you are not like me, I am black proud and honoured. I humble my blackself before your racial utterances because i know i am reason for envy. I am the blackest black, the one racists choose to hate because i am a living testimony to their fallacy. You will call a brother ***** because you think with limits. You will see another inferior because you do not see beyond the physical. I am the blackest black, flow with me here, dine with me you will see i nothing lack.
