Why the hell do white people expect me a black man
to love the musical, Showboat?
Why do they look at me and glorify in chosen denial
a time they see as the "good ol' days"
and wonder why I don't join in with them.
And why are they suddenly defensive
and look at me as ungrateful when I tell them
I don't want to "celebrate" that time or that show.
Am I still supposed to be the thankful nigger who
appreciates any little scraps he gets?
Really?!
Amazing!
