BY J E SOLOMON

I wonder how some people think

Someone invited me to his home

And without saying ‘you’re welcome’

Or asking me what I’ll like to drink

As we do culturally as Africans

Like Nigerians and Moroccans

Even after becoming Americans

This dude just started a conversation

On a subject so drab like civilization

And when I expressed my indignation

He told me I was very rude…

That, what I did wasn’t good

I almost punched that dude
Now, look at this other guy

He thinks I’m a little boy

He tried to hook me up with his honey

So she could come steal my money
I wasn’t born yesterday

You can’t trick me in this way

Others have tried and failed

One of them was nearly jailed
