Talking about racism at a corporate dinner

I accept your opinion and understand your truth

It’s not my job or desire to provide you with proof

To retort what you accept as reality and fact

If you really believe that Trump isn’t full of crap

There’s not much that I can say 

You’d probably disagree anyway

Then you said NFL players must stand

And pay their respects or else we must demand 

Their resignations and endorsements 

Call the owners, the POTUS, and other reinforcements 

And later muse that Trump deserves Nobel prize for peace

For the historic meeting with North Korea at the least

Talking points from Fox News and the Daily Beast

I was quiet when you further bragged jobs and the economy

I chewed my food more than I normally do honestly

But then when you quipped 

Why was Kaepernick so pissed?

Over that little incident?

I took the bait, ‘oh you mean Philando Castile In Minneapolis or Mike Brown In Ferguson?’

You reply, ‘that kid shouldn’t have reached for the Cops gun’ 

‘Besides the officer was found not guilty’

I look for the waiter and beg her to bill me

The table looks to me for some type of reply

I sarcastically say, ‘well at least the cop didn’t die!’

Conversations about bad areas of town

Privilege, the lack thereof and how the disenfranchised act and sound

Boot straps, gun racks, and the media’s quest to keep the rich white man down

It’s like Mortimer and Randolph are back in town 

Trading places, anti racist, the game changed like a dollar bet

After defeat, they got back on their feet, and now they own a jet (again)
