Not Prejudiced But
I’m in no way prejudiced she said
But that one is white and that one is mixed
Skin color prominent in her head
Always remarking on it; her mind fixed...

The Curtains of Solomon
still
for the glory of
our
blackness
to fulfill our destiny
as beautiful as
the
curtains of Solomon
expressed in our skin color
as free as the wind
look what God has done...

Be Yourself
It doesn't matter your skin color
Weither blue, orange, brown or indigo
It's of no use
What matters is the purpose it serves
So chose wisely
We are made and unmade by our own decisions
Nature only produces the circumstances....

Envy Me Not
Call me names and cry
To your lonely and sad lies
I’m stronger than you!
———————————————————
****If someone tells you they are better
because of their skin color,
They are just miserable with their
envy feelings and lost soul....

See Me
Can you see me?
Skin dark,
Eyes brown,
Blood Red
Anger has shown.
I am someone's
Son, nephew, grandchild
Even in a world so cruel
Where violence is everywhere.
Can you see me?
A man with a heart
Not my skin color
Or my class
But see me as a human being.

It's You
It’s you I like…
Not your lifestyle
Not your sexual preference
Not your political persuasion
Not your skin color
Not your nationality
Not your choice of religion
Not your lineage
Not your wealth or poverty
—it’s you I like

We Need Change
Sad
this Child

why are people
prejudiced
we need
change

Haters
you hate me
why
because how i wear my hair
or the way i dress or
the way i walk
or the way i talk
maybe because i'm a female or male
or my skin color is not right
no that's not what it is
you hate me because your not me
you hate me because i'm me...

I'M Not Just a Girl
the term China girl
reduces me
to nobody
defines me
by my skin color
singles me out
as a misfit
it strips me
of all that I am--
poet
college graduate
the “it” girl
the beauty and brains
which matters not
to you--
in your world
I’m only a girl
with no worth attached...

Black
They entered politics with a black I.Q.
and voted black for others
When taking in their black born sons
and gathing for brothers
That making it their black born sum
was taken home to others
When raking in their black born funds
for faking honed to n'others
Author's Notes: Don't hire a man
for his skin color or you insult
the man....

They So Loved The World
GOD, so loved the world, he gave his only son.
China, so loved the world, they gave us COVID,
instead of a cure for cancer.
Politicians, so loved the world,
they tried to suppress voter's rights.
States, so loved the world,
they legalized marijuana,
making it easy to get high.
People, so loved the world,
unless your skin color offends them....

Equal
why must we all do harm to each other?
we're we not created equal?
who is one to judge another?
no one is perfect
skin color hair color the clothes we wear
why must this matter?
you can't judge a book by its cover
we all need to look deep down
look inside to see what each of us has
we are all special in God's eyes
isn't he the only one who should matter?...

My Dream
My dreams are simple, noble and yet true.
To be seen without judgement.
No more locking of car doors as I cross the street.
To be handed the bill when the meal is complete.
Not to be assumed guilty by the police.
To be looked upon as an equal.
My dream is to be treated fair.
Treated like my skin color doesn’t make a difference.
To be shown the kindness of being human
My dream...

Stars and Diversity
Sharing the Stars
*****
No matter your skin color nor political orientation,
We are most truly united, by sharing the same stars.
Amazingly, a most peaceful summation!
Our diversity, so peaceful, in God's brilliant light-show.
His nightly, divine, twinkling constellations.
Love,
Panagiota

The last words of the last prayer broadcast on VICTORY OF EUROPE -VE- Day
" . . . that Man shall be a friend forever".
_____
TO AMERICAN CHRISTIAN TRUMPSTERS:
In spite of my skin color: I AM A MAN!
Are you a man?
Are you my "Friend Forever"?
Nobody told us there was an "Expiration-Date" on The American-Dream.

To Those Who Are Different
To those who are different.
If you are made fun of cause who you are.
Laughed at because your skin color or Faith.
Bullied because your different.
Being who you are is the greatest thing you can be.
Not being afraid of what they think about you
Or what they say.
Life is awesome
If you don't worry what other people think
Dance,Sing,or whatever you heart out
And let no one tell you otherwise
Your just being Human....

Shall We Wallow
Our eyes see skin color,
ears hear only our own views
Mouths speak hatred.
Hands do not reach out to help.
Hearts that cannot love mankind.
Spirits are broken,
morals shoved to the wayside.
Values sold for cash,
ideals never came to pass.
Souls that never knew comfort.
Mankind is finite.
The universe is vast.
How do we justify
all that we could have been, yet
allowed ourselves to wallow...

Alert White Floridians
Beware, if your skin color is other than brown!
Kamala Harris announced that in town.
Save people of color first, that’s equity?
So, if she lived there, she has superiority?
Her husband, being white, can just drown?
Far-left equity, has put its big foot down!
Better get some dye for your evil white skin.
So that your skin matches IdiAmen?

Colors Are Everywhere
I am a cartoonist, a painter, a clandescent poet.
I paint in neons – pinks, greens, yellows and blues.
The background is sometimes done up in purple before I know it.
I start with the skin color, making it a variety of hues.
Beige might work for others, but I use coppers, silvers and pink.
I throw in some oranges every time I do think.
For I am an artist, a painter, a poet.
Colors are everything, don’t you know it?...

We Are All Equal Except
We are all equal
Except don’t drive when black.
We’ll get you
It’s our right
We are all equal
Except if you wear a hoodie
We suspect you are a thug
Unless you are white
We are all equal
Except when we see your skin color
and immediately remember
Every person we ever saw who wronged us and was your color
Wait a second.
What if we never met anyone with your skin color?
How can we judge you?
Let me Google this....
