Buddhists and Muslims
Sometimes, buddhists attack muslims with trivial provocation!
Thus both sides are led into ethnic tension!
But if anomalies are resolved,not much sectarian violence
will be perpetrated!...

Lucifer, Vamoose, Sir
The old Devil, his name is Lucifer
When I see him, I tell him, 'Vamoose, Sir' --
The Devil grins his sly smile
Pleads, 'Let me stay for a while' --
I chase him away with an ethnic slur...

Ethnic pride!

But I believe it is something one can fall back on

Ethnic Origin
A-n attempt to classify people,
N-ot according to nationality;
A-ll about the ancestry instead, where there is commonality.

L-anguage is similar within;
I-nherited status based on society
C-omes from ethnic

One Night As A Slave
Your back was aching
deformed by subservience
shoulders sloped like some fourth-class non-human
as you cut the cane that kept Miss Lillie.

Never again
When 6 million Jews died
You said never again
Yet it happened again, again and again
The genocide in Rwanda
You watched
Ethnic cleansing in Bosnia
You waited
Till the worst was over
Then slowly waded in
Now Rohingya and you close your eyes
Do you remember you said never again?...

Racism
It’s not realism it’s racism a whole organisation left bleeding on the pavement like Stephen,a force that’s racist and corrupt and they wonder why in them we don’t trust it’s just a colour it’s just some skin a man should be judged from the values he holds within not because of his background accent or ethnic origin....

The Human Rainbow
My heart is like the colors of the rainbow,
a spectrum full of every human shade,
bathed in the varied beauty of an ethnic glow,
admiring all the differences God made.

Standing Unspecified
My gender’s not the fairer one,
my student status ... past,
mine is not the voice of region
nor a specific caste.
No network calls me “one of us”
nor seeks to mollify,
I'm not considered ethnic, thus
I do not qualify.
The journals, competitions and
calls for anthology
don’t explicitly ask for bland,
old, white-guy poetry....

I LOVE how Dr King rescued the US Constitution
He did not revolt; Gandhi offered him a method he despaired finding -
Mere men and women see darkly. One ethnic eye, one condescending
Great human beings are great human DOINGS, too. And forgiving ....
(c)Deo. Happy Dr. King Holiday to you. Shalom, shalom I say, as I also lift up the Memory of Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, Dr. King's loyal friend....

NUMBNESS
The sound of animosity
wakes you up.
There was a shadow war.
The ethnic otherness,
when you were ditching
the sermons, the adjectives.
Will you accept the
atrocity of nouns who keep
on inviting the fat spiders ?
The vision has failed.
I don’t find any cue
to the nests of sparrows.
Ah, the booming guns.
But I was talking
to Sisyphus.

There’s nothing more beautiful
Than a native song
A native dance
We move to the beat
Made wide the door
Pulled open the sash
To the simpler things
We can treasure once more
An ethnic custom
A traditional meal
A friendly smile
Crossing over the miles
From someone you knew
Once long ago
There,
With you still
Smiling down upon you.

Potato Pancakes for Pilgrims
Polish potato pancakes
My clan’s tradition
Peel, grate, soften in water
Add eggs, onions, salt
A smidge of flour
Fry in oil
Wow!

THE Real World--
Calibrate it's the last station evil montage
Glorious exploration people on blogs
Telling their personal business
Never being consistent
Closed doors closed mind
Contemplating resignation
I'm ethnic part of the Rhythm Nation
Right on brother right on
Hearts broken welcome to the unfurl
Welcome to the Real World

Seafaring Foreigner
Seafaring Foreigner
In steerage on a steamer with
Figs conceiving in Vesuvian soil
Hidden in a pot of a sturdy trunk
Made of hope and adventure. Fear of
Sights unseen and joys unbeknownst
Of sons and daughters yet.
Hazy canyons of skyscraping giants
Overshadow brick row houses
Hard at work, ethnic pride
Shameful bathing, worn-in
Clothing and nourishment
Beyond the return to
Much worse.

No Headstone For Her Mother
I search rows for a name engraved,
Engraved here, not native Poland;
Poland, war and ethnic cleansing,
Cleansing, her mom thrown in a hole.
