    black and white (tha difference)

    Im lookin in tha judge face he wanna give me ten

    Is it really tha crime or is it because of my skin

    Tha white man rapes and murders and he's out in a year or two

    Black man in this white world what am i suppose to do

    I tip toe around tha job cause they tryin to cut me loose

    Cant fire me cause im black so they lookin for an excuse

    They dont care about my baby or tha things im tryin to build

    They jus want to see me locked up or back in them cotton fields

    So these days i jus listen and i watch what i say

    Cause i kno wit tha wrong choices it could go the other way

    Man my life has been a struggle but im tryin to get it rite

    But its even harder when tha world still sees in black and white !

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
