Matters Of Opinion Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Listening to all the debates going around, everyone placing
blame on white people who have just been struggling and
working to exist here on earth, the same as everyone else.

If there is such a thing as white privilege, how come I have
never heard or seen it before in life?

Is it only visible to those of other colors? How is it that
they can see it, when I cannot?

Apparently it is only a matter of opinion in some people's
minds, because it definitely is not reality in my world.
