You once told me your race <br />(Not if I really cared) <br />You once showed me the true color of your face <br />(Not if that mattered) <br />You are whom you want to be <br />You are the sheep, you are the bee. <br /> <br />You once told me who you were <br />Once you discovered what the dean did <br />You called the police supervisor <br />And filed a report, there you hid <br />Your true genealogy <br />You wanted to be conveniently <br />Different than the jerk <br />Because there was no perk <br />For you to win <br />What an egregious sin <br />What a sad hypocrite <br />You are the pit <br />The pit bull that lies <br />And the other one, the cat <br />That steals the pies <br />You are no different than the bat <br />Who behaved like a wise crow <br />At day time and at night time <br />Chased the house mouse like a deadly owl <br />I never knew you’d stoop so low <br />By perjuring yourself; you duly committed a crime <br />By lying; you are just like the scarecrow <br />The kleptomaniac, which filed the death certificate <br />To claim the benefits that no longer fit. <br /> <br />You once told me your race <br />(Not if I really cared) <br />I just wanted the black ace <br />(Because that truly mattered) <br />The white pearl, the black gold <br />The white gold and my story told.<br /><br />Hebert Logerie<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-untold-story-5/
