Ahdistavat runot

Anteeksi,
jos runoni ahdistavat.
Mutta kun –
ne ovat ainoa
pakoputkeni.
Eikä minulla ole katalysaattoria.

Against racism

Against racism:
The white man said, "Colored people will not be here."
Black man turned around and stood up. Then he said:
"Listen sir .... when I was born I was BLACK"
"When I grew up I was BLACK"
"When I'm sick I'm BLACK"
"When I go in the sun I'm BLACK"
"When I'm cold I'm BLACK"
"When I die I'll be BLACK."
"But, sir."
"When you are born you are PINK.
"When you grow up you're WHITE,"
"When you're sick, you're GREEN,"
"When you go in the sun you turn RED"
"When you're cold you turn BLUE"
"And when you die you turn PURPLE.
"And you have the nerve to call me colored?"
A black man sat back down and the white man walked away .
