Routine Check

I find myself being drawn to the more animated of poets. The ones with loud voices, hand gestures and sarcastic anecdotes are the ones i most frequently put on this.

Being a woman of color, i can obviously relate more to these kinds of poems. Although i'm not african-american or anything..i might as well be, since that's the first initial nationality people think i am. which is cool and all .. but this poet's feelings seem to be universal with people of color and it's soooo true that we profile the police and the "white man" the same way they profile us. So in the end, both are at fault. and the cycle continues and the continuem grows longer and lengthier but that's just the way of the world.
