Black Coffee
Coffee
Is black
Why
Do you like
Drinking
Coffee
In the morning
Under the palm tree?
And at night
Why
Do you drink
Coffee
With milk
And you spread
Nut butter
On you fresh bread?
You don’t like
Blacks
Why
Do you drink
Very black
Coffee
In the morning
Like morons?
And at night
Why
Do you drink
Dark coffee
With milk ?
Leave me
In peace!
Racism is
Absurd
And stupid.
P.S. Translation of ‘Le Café Noir’.
