Color Blind
Is it the color of my skin that keeps you from being my lady friend?
Tell me my African American Queen; Maybe I just lack self-esteem.
       I keep your pretty face in every dream.  I desperately want you to...

Color Blind
My first crush seemed like a box of Crayons
Hot Magenta was tugging on her nylons

She dyed her hair like the Florida Sunrise
Her Cool And Crazy words just mesmerize

Cotton Candy eye shadow with every blink
She kissed Wild Strawberry that tattooed my cheek

Her Midnight Blue eyes, that...

I approach her with the same
Love I approach my family with.
Her skin is black.
I try to speak a few words in her
Native language to welcome her.
Her skin is brown.
I married a Chinese/Hawaiian
and our child is beautiful.
His skin is yellow/brown.
I write poetry about the Native
Americans to...

I have a dream

So many folks then
  smiled and beamed

But things are no more
  what they once seemed
a color-blind society's
  no longer esteemed...

My darling man is quite the catch
Except when his two socks don't match.
I have known him to
Wear black with bright blue
Or colors like a garden patch.

Some people say they don't see color.

I look for others who do see color
and want to make abundant variety with it,
with us and of us.

I long to see more multiculturing colors
and less monocultural monochromatic
shades of ecopolitically grey responsibility
for opportunities at-risk
among those who don't think I...

COLOR BLIND




I thought it was over, though I could never understand




Why we can't walk down the street, holding different hands




'Can't walk side by side, have to have a divide



Sepreate fountains, Sepreate seats, treated as a disease 



This is not what God see in me



I'm a...

Ms Color Blind
Dear Friend,
If I could spill my thoughts into your hands for you to carry my loads
You would find them heavy

If I could switch heartbeats with you and have yours play the song that was mine
They wouldn’t listen

If your sights and visions where replaced by mine,...

I Am Color Blind
Multihued lights flash fervently,
On naked illusion draped eyes zealously,
All shut and secured to colored vision,
Egoist blurry brain images, these are all in an intangible prison.

Some call me quirk, some foible, but all refer me to a societal misfit,
It’s true they seem to tell, but my...

But this is a fact

They looked at me with disgust in their eyes
The moment that I walked in 
The hatred and fear they felt inside
Based on the color of my skin

I was just a stranger passing through
Who simply got lost on his way
I stopped in to get some food
Not...

Everybody deserves their right
Freedom now without a fight
Everybody will walk free
Loving their country, you and me
Greet a friend, walk our street
Freedoms way with the right...

Color Blind
Red, purple, blue, yellow, black, white, green,
So many colors around can be seen.

They shout and laugh everyday,
While I'm alone in every way.

Not one here who knows my name,
It's just words, nothing's the same.

Though they see colors in their minds,
It's black and white, no one is...
