Men don't make passes
at ladies who sit on their
welfare asses.
Ladies don't like
a man who always watch Spike
but act like he still of age
to ride a trike.
You know we got too many
expectations
of our ethnic nations.
We talk integration,
or make a national sensation,
yet too often are too cheap
to make that crucial
realization.
We wanna say
tell the truth.
But too often,
we just be ruth,
not ruthless.
Author notes
I just want to add this is not aimed at any ethnic group, but more to all people who are languishing in poverty, homelessness, joblessness, or just dead end jobs. I wish to encourage and empower, not insult, not glower. Peace out, my peoples! I love ya all. Tough love, some times, but real love. Later!

I like the way you talked about the facts of our today-society. The comparison between men and women thoughts. But yet, my favorite part is the end:
“We wanna say /tell the truth./But too often,/we just be ruth,/not ruthless.”
I thank you for sharing your thoughts here with us and wish you best of luck in the contest you have entered :-)

Thank you for entering. You can fix as many errors as you like and make as many changes as you like until the end of today.
I have read your piece but I won't judge it until after the 26th.
Thanks for entering. Thanks for making a difference.
