I WONDER

I wonder,

 Why is black bad and not good,

I Wonder,

Why are our skins labelled black and not brown,

I Wonder,

when places go dark, why is called a black out, shouldn't a forest be called a green out,

I wonder,

why do a white flag represents peace but a black flag represent war,

I Wonder,

what is black magic
And why is it evil, is this the reason you see a threat when you look at black people,

I Wonder,

What is a black thought and why isn't it called a bad thought,

I Wonder,

Why are good prisons called white collar, but the bad prison are just prisons, is this our natural state, Am I meant to wear chains and be locked behind gates,

I wonder,

Why on black Friday things are  cheaper in the stores, are my values cheaper than yours,

I Wonder,

Why are black neighborhoods called the hood,
Are you afraid of the dark, the way I am afraid of blue and red flashing roof,

I Wonder,

Do you know
Black is beautiful, black is rich, black is not crime,  Let's all just shine like this black skin of mine.
