Racial Lines
There are folks among us who think they are better
because of their positions in life or hierarchy,
They have not learned the art of humility,
They turn up their noses at colors they do not like,
associating minorities with all sorts of ills and strifes,
In their book minorities are inequal and not worthy of their
time,
So, they get tossed on the back burner,
waiting and waiting, without any designation
of time.........,
Sometimes it's social racism at its best,
Yet, they would never confess to their superiors,
that they think everyone else is inferior,
They just keep their competitors' down
by making them seem unsafe and unsound.
