lord why did you make me black? (im back!)

Why Did You Make Me Black Lord ....


Lord .... Why did you make me black?
Why did you make someone
the world would hold back?

Black is the color of dirty clothes,
of grimy hands and feet...
Black is the color of darkness,
of tired beaten streets...

Why did you give me thick lips,
a broad nose and kinky hair?
Why did you create someone

who receives the hated stare

Black is the color of the bruised eye
when someone gets hurt...
Black is the color of darkness,
black is the color of dirt.

Why is my bone structure so thick,
my hips and cheeks so high?
Why are my eyes brown,
and not the color of the sky?

Why do people think I'm useless?
How come I feel so used?
Why do people see my skin
and think I should be abused?

Lord, I just don't understand...
What is it about my skin?
Why is it some people want to hate me
and not know the person within?

Black is what people are "Labeled"
when others want to keep them away...
Black is the color of shadows cast...
Black is the end of the day.

Lord you know my own people mistreat me,
and you know this just ain't right...
They don't like my hair, they don't like my
skin, as they say I'm too dark or too light!

Lord, don't you think
it's time to make a change?
Why don't you redo creation
and make everyone the same?


GOD's Reply:

Why did I make you black?

Why did I make you black?

I made you in the color of coal
from which beautiful diamonds are formed...
I made you in the color of oil,
the black gold which keeps people warm.

Your color is the same as the rich dark soil
that grows the food you need...
Your color is the same as the black stallion and
panther, Oh what majestic creatures indeed!

All colors of the heavenly rainbow
can be found throughout every nation...
When all these colors are blended,
you become my greatest creation!

Your hair is the texture of lamb's wool,
such a beautiful creature is he...
I am the shepherd who watches them,
I will ALWAYS watch over thee!

You are the color of the midnight sky,
I put star glitter in your eyes...
There's a beautiful smile hidden behind your pain...
That's why your cheeks are so high!

You are the color of dark clouds
from the hurricanes I create in September...
I made your lips so full and thick,
so when you kiss...they will remember!

Your stature is strong,
your bone structure thick to withstand the
burden of time...
The reflection you see in the

The reflection you see in the mirror,
that image that looks back,..that is MINE!

So get off your knees,
look in the mirror and tell me what you see?
I didn't make you in the image of darkness...
I made you in the image of ME!


just something i ran into was a good read.

Pretty awesome poem. Even though I'm a gringo, I can relate to the heavy bone structure seeing as I have a Nordic build. Yeah, being thick boned is awesome.

This was indeed wonderful...

Beautiful poem!

Cool!

this reminds me of the family guy episode where someone was given the option to be crippled or black.


nice poem

I'm half black.. Lord why couldn't you make me full black? I joke.

Beautiful

Black is the color of a black muthafuxka
Im as black as a mother that is black in the summer
Im blacker than a bitxh, and Im blacker than a clip
And this makes me want to move like im backin off a cliff
Im black like the crayon, black like the sharpie
Black like a AR, im as black as my heart be
They say that we tend to run fast like a heart beat
Im a black poet but im so not conscious
Black girls hot like a stove hot omelet
But they be lookin at me like da boy got armless
Black guns, black nuns in black rooms packed from the back to the front
is what i want to see, black crumbs
fallin from the toast, no angel out of heaven
Im a black-smoke inhaler, wasn't fraid of 9/11
Better say goodbye to reverends, cuz they gon be gone soon
In a black hole, dungeon, dark tomb
Black toes, black pum, black codes, black coons
Black rose for black moons keeps me in a black mood
And im L-O-L'in' writing this spiteful shxt
Racist? Quite a bit, this is black hieroglyphs
Black Cairo kids taking black bible tips
from educated neighbors who favors them black vinyl clips
You can say "This kid so wack" but cant you see my lingo black
All you need to know, until now, i've never been so black - Ayb
