Dear society,
You call me pretty,
saying that it's rare to have such eyes.
You must be right,
it's as if there is only a few races
who stand by those eyes.
You call me smart,
explaining how it isn't
fair that I have an A in math.
Is that so?
Because I seem to failing
with an F in tow.
Oh, what type of life do I live
to ever deserve such representation?
You wear my clothes but say my food is stinky?
You love my language but snicker when you hear it?
I just don't understand.
Where is it that you stand?
From the mouth of a brown skinned asian
who would have resided in Southeast Asia,
Kiminy Chhith.
