I Am White Poem by Randy McClave

I Am White



In myself a devout man God will see
A terrorist could never become me,
I believe that all man should be free
Also, I enjoy watching Fox News on TV.
I am white.

A bigoted person I can never be called
Even though with some races I am appalled,
Protesting for others I have never recalled
To stand up against lies, I have stalled.
I am white.

A racist or prejudiced person I am not
For others equality I have not ever fought,
But, pizzas and tacos I have bought
True truth I have not really ever sought.
I am white.

I don't hate the needy or the poor
And, I stilll support statues about the civil war,
Guns and bullets are bought at my favorite store
The wealthy should not need to pay more.
I am white.

I proudly fly the U.S flag
And supporting the Stars and Bars I will always brag,
Other flags should be used only as a cleaning rag
Un-Americans, make me gag.
I am white.

I think those on government aid should all have a job
If they did they wouldn't cheat or rob,
Their children wouldn't be in a gang or in a mob
Then those sad pro-lifers wouldn't worry or sob.
I am white.

The U.S Constitution I cannot recite
"American" is the only language that I can speak or write,
Take away my guns and we will fight
Other religions and beliefs are a lie and a blight.
I am white.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This poem sadly describes many of my friends, many neighbors and a lot of people that I know on Facebook, and of course many family members.
I travel outside the U.S constantly, when many residents in many of the great countries that I visit find out that I am from the U.S they usually always ask me the same questions. How many guns do I own, why am I not wearing a cowboy hat, and why do I support russia and trump.
This poem also describes (from my encounters)how the world sees me as well.
