Where I'm From
Once the"Outcasted"now in numbers deep,We
came in on the hush-hush as our fathers made
their creep.As babies started"boomin"to the
bi-racial beat.Full breaded infants made a
retreat.Prejudice runs rampant seems to never
dissipate.Yet mixed children are produced at
a staggering rate.What once was unaccepted,a
family secret to be hid.Is now a growing fac-
tor that can't be rid.I myself am an example
of the hybrid offspring.Of the beginning gen-
erations one of the 1st they came to bring.I
lived thru hate and wonder,wore the title as
a"Racial Blunder".But by the time I bore my
own.There were thousands just like me they
cloned.My children I will raise amongst a
generation new.Where a pure breed is non-
existent & having both parents is rare and
few.I know not what the ending or the status
of the outcome.All I know is where we're go-
ing is the place that I am from.
