I DO NOT BLAME YOU

I DO NOT BLAME YOU I heard you insulted our kindWe are born to this worldLike everyone else, of a womanWhite amongst the black race I blame not your boastful ignorance‘You say the blacks that prayTo reincarnate as white menAre always born albinos’ You are wrong, very wrongThings do not work that wayWhere we are born and howAre deeper mysteries than you’ll ever know That I cover my head from burning sunMakes you think I am inferiorI stay in front of the classIn order to see the board clearly You think your eyes are betterDoes selecting the food I eatTo stop my skin from wrinklesMake you think a curse is placed on me? Your lack of knowledge baffles meYour emptiness is exposed by the things you sayYour understanding of our kind is shallowGo back to school and be taught properly Albinos are people like youNot unfortunate EuropeansDo not add salt to injuryBy spreading falsehood around Just give us a breathing space…
