A NICE SHADE OF BROWN

A NICE SHADE OF BROWN

The 'whites' spend half of their life getting brown,
we should all be the same colour, people of renown;
someone said that nothing would change, that's wrong,
how many times do we see police coming on too strong?

Stopped and searched, on foot or in the car, no escape,
someone got stabbed again, people just stand and gape;
remember Floyd - how many more are just going to die?
girls strip searched, looking for drugs they didn't want to try.

So there we have it - we should ALL be a nice shade of brown,
like my wife, better than most, could never put her down;
we have a hindu prime minister in snooty old England,
and now a muslim in charge of 'wocal' Scotland - wow!

You better get used to it - the beginning of the end,
old days are gone - it's time for a nice colour to transcend.

How I wish ALL people would look beyond colour! And religious beliefs etc. I like to think we are getting there (naive? probably) but ... only time will tell. Fab poem!
