Best Minority Poems

As they say, “Where there’s smoke, there is fire”
In this case it is certainly true
For a people who once ruled so many
find themselves more in place of the few
For so long they have led with a vengeance
but the tide has now started to turn
The majority...

Today I decided to write you a letter.
Honey I know that life is hard, and sadly it won't get better.
The world is not a friendly place
Some people will dislike you because of the melanin dancing on your face.

They will call you names, and I know...

One would think that the feeling of being a slave would create understanding
One would think that racism would die off and cease to overtake our surrounding
Equality has become but a faint memory buried with a man Africa once so greatly looked up to
Labels still floating...

What I believe is what is.
Not some metaphysical ideal,
Nor a political fizz.
It is honest sensible and real.

It’s about my friends, relatives and yours,
The ones we haven’t as yet met,
And won’t because we’ve closed those doors,
And what we have is all we get.

Look at it all...

Educated Minority
 
We are an educated minority.
Why? Because some black kids aren't get’n it and some teachers aren't giv’n it. 
This has got to change because its no fun to see classmates that I know are smart get left in the dark. 
Teachers have got...

People today are so self obsessed
So wrapped up in themselves
Banging on about THEIR rights
THEIR civil liberties THEIR freedoms 
They have forgotten about the people
Who fought and died to win them...

Paul was at the office when the
first atomic bomb fell and when 
Muntz TVs replaced console radios

and the first man landed on the moon.
He saw the first big computers trucked in 
and locked in a top-secret room.

Paul was an accountant for 50 years
but the day...

I forsake my curse, cause' the red wine, be bitter of my blood, from this "tree" vine, but no 
bee colonized by themselves like me, like me my buzz was cut off, and I imitated what I 
saw, connecting hives to honey, giving kindness for...

We find ourselves in different shelves in life to shape and sharpen thoughts 

Thinking for a greater tomorrow just to breath the fresh beat of earth 

Thunder strikes creating lighting to capture images that would last for Gods 
Miming our moves as we elevate invention...

I vote every election;
Wonder if my voice is ever heard.
I served in the services;
Sometimes my treatment was absurd.
I pay my bills on time,
And I abide the law.
Seems sometimes being an American minority
Is the major flaw.

I still lift my pride,
and my head high.
I fly the Eagle's...

Minority

Being with brute force in one,
And a helpless other for some,
Treating those who need care,
Will be your cure everywhere.

Mutual respect never exists,
As being in numbers always persists,
We have reached that ugly state,
Where we enjoy other's fate.

What have we become,
Shamelessly enjoying the sorrows of some,
It might...

MINORITY NOT NONENTITY

We're the minority not nonentities
We aren't helpless persons deserving of pity and charity
So Include us in the mainstream education and employment
We don't really need your sympathy
You will see the beauty of our lives if only you treat us with empathy

You speak different languages...

The Voice of reason
The Voice on the phone
The Voice of the radio

Voice of the Movies
Voice of the television
The Voice of the news

The Voice of the fad
Voice of the worshiped hero
Voice of the people

Voice of civil rights
The voice of everyone’s rights
Voice of who matters

Voice of funnery
Voice...

The devil asked me
Where're you going to join
The minority or the majority
I said the right side
The devil asked me again
Which is the right side 
The majority or the minority
I repeated the same answer
The right side of course
The devil said why are you so stupid
I said...

Nationalities come
Nationalities grow
Where coffee's come
More nation's grow

To see them now
we feel they've left
What home for them
was far and blessed

So how can they
be coffee friend
To all our country's
hate at them

For leaving home
when we want too
For home a love
We stare at you

And some still know
that home is...
