I’ve Disavowed Humanity….a poem

So tired,
So tired of this world,
   This life,
But I’m told to be grateful
     for my life….

   of discrimination and
   poverty,
   of Christians putting crosses
      in my mouth,
      that I promptly spit out
        to the ground.

Some Christians burn crosses,
  Killing, lynching black people, gunning them down at church.

It makes me feel sorry for the human race,
But glad I’m no longer….human.

Disavowed….

Learning how to be a better human being through poetry, prose and my journal. Still working on a better life in San Diego, CA..... Truth is, I am just another human among eight billion other folks on planet Earth. I've been told that my poetry is dark. I practice poetry.
