Personae Gratae

Come on in take a seat 
everyone’s welcome,
I don’t discriminate, 
black-brown-yellow, or whites,
Say now your a 
really good person,
An altruist philanthropist 
or really just nice. 

Yeah whatever I only 
care what’s on the inside,
Have no interest 
in color of skin,
Just keep coming never
turn away a stranger,
If you like bring some 
more of your Kin. 

If only others took a 
leaf from your book,
What a much better 
world this could be,
No racism, hypocrisy 
allowed inside my joint,
This grim reaper accepts 
every body he sees.
