I Am Not

I AM NOT!
I am not Black, cause you say I am
I am not White cause I look like you
I am not Red, from a tribe that’s dead
I am none of what your government said
I’m to sign my sex on the dotted line
I am not an ethnicity nor a race
I am not a refugee from another place
I am not a figure lost in time 
Nor a hex or curse from the “Most Devine”
Let me tell you, Who I am………
I am the creation from the likeness of which “IAM”
