Color Blind

If only I could fall asleep
at the appointed time,
Instead of this slumberous means,
slipping between the cracks of another endless week

Where the sun bares down
with sickly sweet shards,
feeling the hair burn,
on the surface of these arms

Wait for it,
but it never arrives,
blue exhaust spitting,
from environmentally green cars

Racial wars on the television screen,
endless lies from a charlatan,
how can Youth be so gullible?
Roll back civilization another thousand years

Don't be blinded by the color of skin,
beneath the surface,it's all wax,mucous,and sin
sweet talking words with a beautiful flow,
until they have taken away every 'right'
that you have ever known...
