My old mule, <br />He's gota grin on his face. <br />He's been a mule so long <br />He's forgotten about his race. <br /> <br />I'm like that old mule -- <br />Black -- and don't give a damn! <br />You got to take me <br />Like I am.<br /><br />Langston Hughes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/me-and-the-mule/
