Racist Poem by David Harris

The word racist is becoming a joke
and I agree it shouldn't be.
The word is entering all part of our culture
from things like toys, foods and clothing
have all become racist.
They are not of course,
but to some wongos they are.
A young girl plays with a gollywog
she automatically labelled a racist.
The gollywog was a character
from a children's book written over two hundred years go,
but it is not racist.
Wearing a sombrero and not being a Mexican
is now a racist thing.
The latest food to become racist
is a hot crossed bun.
Any food beginning with word black is racist,
black pudding, black berries, black cherries, black peas and beans
are called racist food!
Wongos are making the meaning of the word racist a joke.

(Author's note: the word wongos is my own creation and stands for a subnormal idiot.)
