Arabian Photostatic
If black only stood and served an evil purpose
At all times I’d hate it completely, reject it and resist it
With all my will- power and with all my strength
Maybe perhaps she/he once grew from a land called Africa
Maybe she/he had very sharp all five human senses intact
Together to quickly decipher good from evil
Like fetishism, totemism, dogmatism, jewishism, moslemism
Or churchism the desire to choose and to choose rightly doesn’t
Stem from culture of any real people
I’d repeat with every confidence
I’ve within my being
There’s a global percentage of liking for African
If she/he held high the need to speedily shun acts of schism,
Nepotism, tribalism
If she/he settled for the right attitude like in plucking a trees’ goodly
Apples,
If she/he selected the most likely option from multiple sets of solutions.
Could you imagine the hypocrisy involved
with depicted black as fearful as a strange
Figure –
A genie darkly big, long and tall
Exactly replicated from Arabian Nights?
