what do you owe me?
my culture ?
my history?
should I rebuke my process hair
and embrace my African name and my dashiki?
who am I
am I a negro?
NIGGA
Black
or "African American"
or are niggers or niggas the same
or am I paranoid, caught in perpetual.
racism, male chauvinism, ego-centrism
Who are you to call me third world
when you rape my sisters
ravage my gold, my land
then confine me to a metropolitan reservation
who are you to criticize
the way I talk
the way I dress
because of this what does it make me
more human or Less?
