Poestory
Singled Out The calls came almost every day, He did this, he said that, I wonder what it will be today? Yes, this is his mother, now what? So, he shouted out an answer in class? What’s the big deal? He said you never call on him anyway, Unless he shouts and screams. Someone called him a nigger, Nothing was ever done. Now he calls someone a douche bag, You called me and sent him home? “Why don’t white people like black people?’ The question came one day, I looked at him sadly and didn’t know what to say. Why do they say no whenever I ask to play? He invited them to his party, no one ever came, Now he is asking me to sleep over, boy are you insane?
