“This world don’t need no people but Black people”
these word uttered from the lips of an American Nazi
whom I dated for months,
all the while, not knowing
not realizing it.
A Nazi she is as much as she denies it.
Ideas of racial supremacy
Just replace the word Black with the word Arian.
Now after time has passed
And the scars have faded
She denies ever having said those words specifically
She remembers not
Because although such word remain in my heart like a dagger
There to violate every hope for life
To her, it was just Wednesday.
Atchtung!
I write these words
To shine a spotlight
And throw attention to her.

WHoa...when you started to realize who she actually was and what she believed probably scared you!!! It would have scared me!!!Nice poem and a person so naive and so discrimnating should be put in the spotlight.

This poem was deep. Sometimes the
truth comes out of a person's mouth
and you look at them in a whole new
light. Thanks for the read.

Poetry is spiritual ventilation!
