Cross Burner

(This is a fictional poem) You've done mean things over the years but this time you've gone too far. You burned a cross in a man's yard because he's a different color than you are. I feel like kicking you out and if you don't apologize, that's exactly what I'll do. You make me ashamed to be your dad and I'm getting tired of putting up with you. I've always told you that all people are equal but you still became racist somehow. You will go apologize to that man and I mean now. You make me so mad that I shout. If you ever do this again, I'll kick you out.
