the colors of racism

the colors of racism

A Poem by keith

the colors
of 
racism



the color
of racism and bigotry is ugly

racism at best 
a cancer unlike 
any other

there is no cure

there is no
such creature as a little racist or the giving support for  basic issues minus the color thing

it does not work 
that way 
racist or not racist 
no option

to not speak out every time racism raises it ugly 
is but to condone

to address
 the issue of racist comment not the commenter
is to condone

to provide a venue for the racist to launch 
vitriol of hate
is to condone

there are only two choices
no in between
racist or not racist

to not condemn is to condone

 to condone is to allow
to allow is to give growth

venue for those that speak with evil intent of hatred 
i will not provide

 speak freely just not here

this soapbox 
i keep as my own 
without shame 
without fear
without the cancer 
you carry

taking stand 
of 
absolute rejection 
or allowance
for it to grow 
and prosper 

your choice
i have made mine

racist or antisemite 
matters not 
one in the same
