Not a Racist But good poem
When i Born , I Black
When i grow up , i Black
When i go in sun , I Black
When i scared , I Black
When i sick , i Black
And when i die , I still Black
And you white fellow:
when you born , you Pink
When you grow up , you White
When you go in sun, you Red
When you cold , you blue
When you scared , you Yellow
When you sick , you Green
And when you die , you Grey
and you calling me colored
- i liked it the kid has good imagination....tell me what do u think...
Regards
Harry

That's pretty dam awesome for a child! And it's hilarious too! Very gifted child to have that much insight so young. I would love to see a Klan member's reaction to this! I hope this child wins whatever the award is just for being so clever and observant!
