Mythology of Color

by Rain


There is no scientific proof
that color has anything to do with one's IQ.
They say I'm black, but my skin is brown.
I looked Black up in Webster's dictionary
and this is what I found:
      black is evil, cheerless
       wicked, soiled, angry, dirty
       depressing....
I thought to myself as I read this out loud,
"is that how they see me, not black and not proud?" 
I knew Webster made a mistake,
those words weren't true, that dictionary was fake!
Black is Beautiful, I'm Black and I'm proud, 
The stuff Webster wrote should be banned and outlawed. 
There is no scientific proof that color
has anything to do with my intelligence...
