Eskimos in Dresses

I am caucasian
Thats how I was born
I dont critisize Asian
Racism is torn

No one's conceived
The way they want
Yet we all percieve
Thin is nonchalant

Why to this day
is color the reason
Skies turn from blue to grey
its still appleasin

But when skin color is different
People point and tease
Dont you dare make a judgement
By the things that you see
Judge by character
Judge by emotion
Not by bikini's down near the ocean

That isnt the only problem
torture for how were dressed
Would you laugh at them
If an eskimo wore a dress?

Treat others the way you want to be treated
So why antagonize when love is needed?

Author notes

Not my best poem, just trying to get a point across..

Do you think racism is necessary? I mean really.. You dont like when people hurt you by the things you cant control.. so can you give that respect back?

    A good poem, I believe everyone, even if only subconsciously, is at least somewhat racist, some people are brought up to associate certain traits with certain races. I like when you go deeper talking about the way people dress, which people also judge. Overall an enjoyable poem.
