WHAT IS WRONG WITH BEING BLACK

I wrote this poem in 2015 when the deep south started their racist stuffs again. It goes like this;

Life is a strange place
To form the strangers pact
For to live and die
Many questions of life
Many worries of life
Than to go about asking
Why some people are black

Why the whites are white
Is not the black man's business
We may be black
But they are not white
Only not as black as we are

Nobody chooses their destiny
And nobody chooses their race
And with our eyes
We both see black and white monkeys
If we are black
And we see nothing wrong in being black
Why should you see something
Wrong in being black
Once in a while
We all ponder
What is wrong with being black.

The Good Old Days

The good old days
When the sun was rising in the east
And setting in the west
When the children didn't want to grow up
Not for fear of the morrow
But for the sweet times

The good old days
After the end of the bad old days
And followed by the bad days
Of continual despair 
And cyclic melodrama

They that knew the good old days
Only believed it
Those that only know the bad days
Think it was a mirage
Whether the better days will come or not
Does not reside in the old
Only if the young will grow.
