???????

I'm not a country red neck
Nor part of any clan
My skin is white like ivory
I am a Caucasian man.

My music of choice is Mo-Town,
Hip-Hip and R&B.
Alternative some, heavy metal, Yes.
I can say that music relaxes me.

I have a fondness for romance
I guess I've been " In Love"
I take my experiences and use them
For my stories of " True Love"

In high school I played football
Slot receiver my senior year
A tall, strong consistent target
We went seven and three that year

Now, a grown man. 
Twenty something.
Middle class, handsome man 
hard working

This merely is a biography
In my own poetic spin
So, I hope you enjoy my little story
Entitled "My White Skin"
