#BlackLivesMatter has always mattered to me. The #Facts too! | Blog#42

Look at me | #Writing about #race on Blog#42
Look at me.
I mean, get really close and look.
I don’t fit into your book?
But you see
I have no book
In spite of the way I look

I am all and I am nothing
An Ay-Rab to one uncle

My grievances?
Criticized, minimized
My thoughts?
Reduced as invalid
Derided as of the privileged
My affection?
Pushed away
My pain
What pain?
Look at me!
Really look at me.
See me?
