We Will All Be Good Niggers Poem by Ted Sheridan

We Will All Be Good Niggers

Rating: 3.5


We will all be good niggers.....to the chaos in the world
just as long as we believe that taxing the rich
will clothe and feed the poor___
or by aborting an unwanted fetus
we will be creating a better more loving world___
We will all be good niggers.....to the evil in world
as long as we try to negotiate a peace with evil
Evil unopposed is not peace but death......
and peace.....
Peace is but the dream of a conquered defeated people___
It is Evil's 'Dirty Little Secret'......

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Never was political incorrectness so deftly penned. Agree or not, the reader can't help take on board the sentiment. t x

A bold choice of title and repeated line here Ted (even more so if you're white - I have no idea if you are or not) , and I hope it doesn't get misunderstood. But it likely will, so brace yourself. As far as the points you make go, I vehemently disagree with every one, but as far as the poetry goes, I think brave, fresh writing with something to really say is always welcome. To paraphrase Voltaire 'I may not like what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.' Hugs Anna xxx

These words you say are true most that read this well be shaking their heads yea, this guy has it down pat! but don’t expect praise cause you use a word that’s only allowed to be use in a rap song format and were still throwing dirt on Imus as a poem this holds together well and the flow is right on
