ColorblindA Poem by Mortimer BrewsterI drive to survive Seeing the prize in my eyes I fight to stay in flight To stay outta jail because I can’t make bail I use my vision to complete my mission To use my theory on what I need to be Here I stay stalking my prey Ready to strike but I’m called a Kike Because of my skin I’m considered a sin But I will not laydown I will wear my crown I will flip the world upside down to show there is nothing wrong with brown With support from my kin I am ready to win I will show I can be like the powerful man behind the mike I will make everyone see gray so no one can ever say Your not the same color as me and that makes me better than you, you see That’s my decision to make race not a fact or opinion I don’t want to fail to make racism set sail To stay tight with the thought of the right To see the sun rise and to make better lives And continue to strive to stay alive
