All His Demands Are Foreign
The way Mark does his Campaign,
The way he drinks his champagne,
Manner of smiling at Pain
And what he says after Gain:
Nothing Black: all through ''White''!
Mark's smacked lips he would leave tight...
In Mark's Black life the Whites reign,
All his voiced demands foreign:
The movies he wished he'd seen,
The countries he dreamt he'd been:
In Mark's world "no worthy being";
The Black Girls he'd been seeing...
In Mark's life Black and White fight
And he reasons "White is right"
Black not as bright,neither light;
White arrives and it's Black's flight!
A boss of their Black Union
And White stuffs his arms pinion.
