"Color Me Peach"

In this world - I'm told - White is bold
Color is wrong, but White is right, - but,
bandaids aren't white and neither is skin -
except for Dracula (eee--)'s.

Color Me Peach!

The farmer is sunburnt redder than an In-
dian.

A sunny life made their skin red, but
city life turned it white.
Who can tell Indian from White?

Color Me Peach!

How are Caucasians white?
Sick people are white as a sheet, & pale
as a ghost; even a Black child pales and
turns white when sick.
Albinos and Hemophiliacs are white, and
so is Count Dracula(eee--).

Color Me Peach!

In Europe of old, and old Transylvania,
Count Dracula did live; but only with
blood sucked from friends, and the legend
was born.

Color Me Peach!

What of those who call white bold?
They live via the blood of slaves, and
women, children, and colored.

Color Me Peach!

They say white is Christian, but Christ
was a Jew, and Olive colored.
The Bible is used to support their claim,
but Christ said only to Love God totally &
your neighbor as yourself.

Color Me Peach!

In this world, some are called Black, but
are more white than are Whites, and bandaids
are not white.

Color Me Peach!

What color then are bandaids, and what
color flesh?
Look at the Peach! It is white - sort
of - and yellow with red, like rosy, red
cheeks.

Color Me Peach!

Supremists claim a superior white race
will survive a nuclear holocaust, and be
purified by it.
Haven't they had 3 tries to prove their
case - Mars, a desert; Venus, polluted; &
the asteroid Belt, a planet destroyed by a nuclear holocaust?

Color Me Peach!

(Mr. Pals comments: "The title and refrain are the same. This is a prose poem which is intended to be sung. However, the music is not yet written, so pick your key, and vocalolize [sic] ala Bobby Dillon [sic], or a Country Western Star.")
