Sorry for bein on the slave boat

for our gunz and violence, no food on our trays
I apologize...
for the fact that theres drugs on the streets
skinny lil kids with no shoes on there feet
I apologize...

sorry for the question:"Cant we be brothers?"
I apologize...
that my hair is nappy an my stomach is hurtin
sorry I made this country so divertent...

This was an awesome write. Yet i'm still trying to understand where the negitivity is needed..... Anyways you expressed yourself very well in this poem. I enjoyed it and i don't blame you for your choice of words and such, this is how you vent. I admire that. You say what you feel. Great job. I'll be looking for more of your work.

As I read this poem, and some of the comments,
I really start to see how lost we are, as human beings.
What hurts is the people who don't;
can't understand your poem, and it's depth.
This is not negativity in the least bit, nor is it stereotyping, it's frustrastion.
This is how the world in a whole feels
( about blacks, jews, women,each other).
I loved this write. All of it is true then and now.
For all who still are in denial, just ask your self;
if you meet and man in suit and tie in a dark alley vs
a man in rags who would you trust?

Well written
