Poetic Verses
That Land
Why is such a behaviour found in such a developed country
So haughty that some believed it to be so high and mighty
But yet a large number of the population actions are so petty
Thus showing that for some aspects of life are just not ready
How it is quite obvious some just get pushed around and blame
Because their skin tones are clearly not the same, such a shame
And so this can tend create such element of apprehension and fear
Know full well such hate,is cultivated, nurtured and always in the air
Some use no type of subtly with their racism
And this is creating such an ever growing problem
As those who know better tend to blame any defect in the system
Is the responsibility of those with deeper pigmentation
One can see how a degree of ignorance can quickly permeate
And be used by those in the political directorate
Who as a party used such a pillar in their manifesto
Spewing such out at rallies, how those supporters eyes glow
A guy perhaps forgot or neglected a bit of that history
Perhap patronising saying how things have changed for me
But I did not know from whence his information came
But the last time I checked my situation was still the same
Then he went on saying my people were of such great importance
In the war against the British for the nation's independence
But my response was the Mr Owens of such Olympian brilliance
Brought such fame, but still had to use the backdoor for any type of entrance
But yet such a negative behaviour is allowed to fester
Spreading up to the hierarchy like a metastatic cancer
As we get stereotyped, profiled and blamed at every manner
If we drive a top of the line car, get pulled over
As there is doubt about you being the the owner
But can one believe such about a land of the brave and free
But to whom is such referring, certainly not those like me
Perhaps directed to the ones devoid of any trace of pigmentation
But for the rest of us, such shall happen only by divine intervention
