Palimpsest
Echoes of old stone-
Blood, quills, the stars all entwine.
A child's voice ascends.
Blood, quills, the stars all entwine.
A child's voice ascends.

Skin Game
How do you identfy Paula?
I'm white. Nearly White.
A bit of Native American.
Long ago and far away...
DOES IT MATTER?
Some other family members are mixed:
white/black & white/brown...
One married an Chinese girl twice...
Are mixed kids "told" their race?
DOES IT MATTER?
Can't we see the person...
Inside the "color"?
Does your precieved color...
determine who you are or aren't?
DOES IT MATTER?
Some people will say...
first black ball player...
first...
I'm white. Nearly White.
A bit of Native American.
Long ago and far away...

Better or worse
People think about others
That's just a fact
But they do it in two different ways
Some people compare themselves to their supposed superiors
Those who they believe are better than them
Others prefer to ignore that
And focus on those who are worse, inferior
Is it a cruel trick or fate that we all live this way?
Or is it simply the common flaw of humanity?
Perhaps comparison is simply our truth
That's just a fact
But they do it in two different ways
Some people compare themselves to their supposed superiors
Those who they believe are better than them
Others prefer to ignore that
And focus on those who are worse, inferior
Is it a cruel trick or fate that we all live this way?
Or is it simply the common flaw of humanity?
Perhaps comparison is simply our truth
