Racism <br />Eats you up inside. <br /> <br />Plays upon <br />you're insecure mind. <br /> <br />Perceptions of threats <br />that are not there. <br /> <br />You hate his dark skin <br />and the black man's hair. <br /> <br />You hate the white skin <br />of the blue-eyed boy. <br /> <br />This hatred - <br />you taste - <br /> <br />it does more <br />than annoy. <br /> <br />It consumes <br />you're very <br />identity. <br /> <br />Eats you up <br />psychologically. <br /> <br />Prepares you <br />to murder <br />indescriminately. <br /> <br />And destroys <br />all who are touched <br />so <br />tragically...<br /><br />Wayne Leon Learmond<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/racism/
