Winner of Best African Poem, 2005.

(spelling, grammar, & emphasis retained)

wen i born, i black.
wen i grow up, i black.
wen i go in sun, i black.
wen i sick, i black.
and wen i die, i still black.

and u white fella,
wen u born, u PINK.
wen u grow up, u WHITE.
wen u go in d sun, u RED.
wen u cold, u BLUE.
wen u scared, u YELLOW.
wen u sick, u GREEN.
and wen u die, u GRAY.

And u calling me COLORED?
