Question: Poem about someone beingg shunned because of their race!. Please rate+comment!?
Don't hate me 'cause I'm asian
Don't hate me 'cause I'm not white
Please put down that sharp sharp knife
I do not wish to fight
Why can't we get along!?
Why do you insult me so
Please put down that harmful gun
I'm not your real foe
Why can't we just team up
For the greater good
Why do you hide your true emotions
Under emotion's hood!?
No, I'll never be white
No, i'll never be black
No I did not insult you mother
No I never stabbed you in the back
Why are you so evil!?
Why are you so cruel!?
Is it because I'm smart!?
Or because I'm such a fool!?
Tell me I want to know
Don't shun me for no reason
Right now I can't put up with
You're desolate reasonless treason
I'm screaming in my head
Now I'm at the edge
No, now you can't save me
You just tripped me off the ledgeWww@QuestionHome@Com

It's actually one of the best poems I have read in here - insightful, structured well, nice use of imagery and metaphoric language!. All essential things for a moving poem!. Most of the poems in here are emo self-hating drivel!. Good on you for recognising a soicetal flaw and publicising the issues on a world wide forum and showing us your work!. A lot of writers don't have the courage you have and that's why they are writers not authors!. Good Luck with your writing - I hope you go as far as your talent suggests you should!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Very good and it covered alot of the racism issues!.!.!.!.I'd give it a 7!.!.!.!.!.life is meant to be lived fully and if we all see it through the eyes of a blindman and give it the innocence of a child and the love of a mother world peace will be a reality!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
