Cross my path in any town
Down any street
My black skin will attract you
I’m sure
Do not walk wide of me
Do not cross the street
Pass me with a smile or a hello
Or
Give me a nod
If all hell breaks loose in your mind
And you become unsure
Then remember my friend
Like you I am human
And as black as I am
Just a wink will do
hey i like the poem ‘just a wink will do’ you write very good poems i like them a lot. thank you for sharing them
Hi. This is a really great beautiful piece.
Is it ok if I use it in my Assessment?
I’ll include a small section about the author and their inspiration as well, so any extra information would be great 🙂
