About Me

I have always had a hard time expressing myself, I can never actually truthfully tell the way I feel. My mouth clamps shut before I can say anything I regret, so I find this as a way to finally say what I feel without choking up.

Colorblind

A man serves my friend a smoothie
The man turns to me and frowns
"Sorry, I don't serve black people." He says
Then continues down the counter.

I stare at him, flabbergasted
I'm not black and he's not white
Neither of us are what's in a crayola box
but even crayons get along better

Blind people have an advantage
So do dogs
They don't see the colors that people claim we are
They see you for who you are, not what's covering you

We should all be a little colorblind.
