Black and White

[Barbara Eia (Brownless)]

This poem was written by an African child

When i born....i black
When i grow up....i black
When i go in sun...i black
When i scared....i black
When i sick...i black
And when i die...i black

U white fella
When U born...U pink
When U grow up...U white
When U go in sun......U red
When U cold...U blue
When U scared....U yellow
When U sick.....U green
When u die.......U grey
And you F'ing call me coloured
