The Great American Racist

THE GREAT AMERICAN RACIST I stand my ground and white is what is me as fair a man as there could ever be I'll not apologize to anyone for what the world's dependent on but love my own, for that's the way I see. Excuses come from those who ever fail or educated by their time in jail and racist it may be but it's the side of me who stands by justice, in its final wail; the die's been cast; and juries set the stage and let out are the crazies from their cage; while whites proclaim all guilt from high and others only live the lie expecting things to change because of rage; Whose knife has cut the thread once meant to bind depriving all the love there is to find? The greatest tragedy of all is when our backs are to the wall-- the ending won't reveal, the truth we find. © ron wilson aka vee bdosa the doylestown poet
