The United Hates, a poem by Leonard Pigg III
Dark face in a bright city
Getting dirty looks, what a pity
“Man” in traffic, driving a big truck
Stares hard, as if I give a fuck
It’s his hang-up not mine
I’m trying to get along just fine
Ignore the ignorant, let them rave and rant
I find their brain is the size of an ant
This isn’t your world, its ours
Keep your hatred in your cars
The most cowardly of bosses
Secretly burn crosses
Choke down hate in the workplace
Attempt to smile at a darkened face
Denying promotions, simulating emotions
When we all know the beast within
Regardless of color, hatred is the sin
