Look at them! Have they no shame!
Walking the streets together
You tell me who’s to blame
One of them is black the other one white
I heard someone yell out, what a sight!
People stare and whisper as they walk by
Some passing judgement, asking themselves why?
Have you ever seen such a pair
Snubbing their noses and putting on airs
Some are curious as to how they met
Wondering if they have any regrets
If this were ancient Rome,
The Romans would throw rocks
Change your mindset all of you
It’s just a pair of socks!
From an upcoming poetry book “Arugula Salad and Other Food for Thought”
