In this place full of preferences
I be the despicable one
To who wants someone like me
I can't find
I don't know many who would date
This kind of black guy
Or so the excuses go on
But I myself shun the gavel
For I repel the attraction of the darker brown
It's frowned upon
But past experiences give me a shivering nostalgia
So be in and out the gruesome
Actually
It's actually nasty
I lost hope in people
When I found out I was ugly
Because I have gap teeth
And god don't like ugly
Words I didn't understand
Sent me in a negative spiral
to place where i hated people's faces
And every other man
In many places
Of many spaces
To the old proverb
Don't judge a book by its cover
But I see so many random faces
To read the proverbial book
What my eyes seek some say
Condescending it may
Be seen right betwixt
A rock and a hard place
Still running in place
To make haste and waste the meaning of what it is to taste
Now I see we live in side the belly of a beast
And the roughest of diamonds deposit gold into the tree where only the tall can reach,but tell the short not to touch
And two birds in the bush is worth viewing than the one you can touch
Through the plot and good intentions scheming
Am I a decent human being
