content of character

they can't stop

talking about the race

thing.

it never ends this talk

of the color

of one's skin.

black, white, mixed,

why is it so

important

to so many people?

will it ever end?

it's impossible to 

understand

why it's continually

brought up

and deemed important,

again and again.

didn't someone once say

something about

the content 

of one's character and not

the color of one's skin?

oh right,

they did away with him.
