Black Stereotype

We are all ignorant
We all don't pay attention to or nurture our children
All we think about is money and dope dealing
With our expensive rims and cars that shine while we are riding in them
We haven't even bought a home to live in
To worried about keeping up with the Jones'
We spend all our money before we get it and it's gone again
We are lazy and don't succeed in life
Don't complete high school and don't think about a college education
Worried about slavery and receiving reparations
You weren't on a slave ship yourself
Worry about yourself others around you and your own reputation
We don't worry about the world and current events
So small minded to view the world as just what your neighborhood is
Ghetto and loud out in public or in private
We all don't care who our baby daddy's or baby mama's is
Think it's over because we have a black President
Please,this is where it all begins
You'll still sit there and show no initiative
This is not even the whole list
When you open your eyes to a new day
Try not to be a part of what the black stereotype is......

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
