in scotland they endear with the word
doll,
in northern england they endear
with the word pet...
    in southern england they stick
a cucumber up their ***** and call
them celtic fairies doing spring-clean...
and can't i really say the word niger,
which is a country?
           nigh-jer?
                              that extra g does
nothing for me, hardly any giggles
or ferocious reminder of past history,
****, i might speak the tongue,
but my ethnic make-up is hardly
with the historical tattoos...
  so i can't name a country by its name?
camcorder ****, i.e. cameroon?
                if this language is going to
lick the ***** of the people that put
a straitjacket on it, i won't!
      thank **** i retained my native tongue,
because, as it stands, i'm this close | |
in finding expressing this language:
completely unbearable!
i didn't sign up to live in a lunatic
asylum of political correctivity,
  which is the automated
                         version of correctness;
and once the fairest of all tongues,
                      now, the most limping.
