Shame

Literally this, Literally that
First it whites, Now its the blacks

It started with a dream
Turned into a horror movie

Diluted in Arms 
Websites unreformed

To date based on race
jungle fever a disgrace

Biracial children
With the prettiest face

All in the name 
Of pointing fingers and blame

How it started 
History remains

Of diluted minds
A game of exchange

What is the problem
With ignorance they explain

The cycle continues
A story of shame

Wow loved that you touched on such a controversial topic. Poets always have the kindest way to remind man of his humanity. Thank you fellow poet! Toni O.
