Langston Hughes (1902 -1967)
Children's Rhymes
By what sends
the white kids
I ain't sent:
I know I can't
be President.
What don't bug
them white kids
sure bugs me:
We know everybody
ain't free.
Lies written down
for white folks
ain't for us a-tall:
Liberty And Justice--
Huh!--For All?
*EDIT* I searched for other poetry threads, but found nothing because I forgot to change the search date. If a mod wants to add this to another poetry thread, then delete this one, it's cool.
