THE LAND OF BLACK CHILDREN

THE LAND OF BLACK CHILDREN

And the white soldiers

sentinel the black children.

And the black children

no longer play march

and they observe the parades

the white soldiers.

And the white soldiers

never play

watching

this land of black children.

And the black children

get used to never be soldiers

and only play of black children

dominated by white soldiers.

...because to be soldier

must be only for white children

that were born dominating

even the dreams of black children.
