Asian Dub Poem by Cecelia GrantPeters

Asian Dub



Some peope use "Racial Slurs"
Some people make "Racist Comments"
Some people use "Derogatory Terms"
They speak an Old/New language
It's called
RACIALESE
But, what about me?

I'm pally with Manjit, Sangheeta and Rahl
I dally, with Kiran, Harminder and Bal
I'm eating some curry
But I'm in no hurry cos it's nice
With Chapatti, Basmati and Peas
I talk with whomever and do as I please
And I'm not too impressed when you speak
RACIALESE
RACIAL EASE
RACE SHALL EASE.

I dine, with Kalvinder and Satnam and Bin
And drink wine with Harminder and Gurpreet and Din.
I'm talking with Dhillon, Gurvade and Hussain
I'm walking with Uma, Parminder and Bain.
I drive in my car with Dill and Miss Flora
And Jive in the Bhangra with Mrs Aurora.
I'm cooking some curry
But I'm in no hurry cos it's nice
With Chapatti, Basmati and Peas
But I only serve those who speak no
RACIALESE
RACIAL EASE
RACE SHALL EASE

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
At my house party my friend Jivan cooked some basmati rice, with peas and chappati. One lady who turned up at my house later was shocked that I had an Asian friend and called Jivan a racist word. I told that lady to leave and showed her the door....Not in my house, not to my friends...No Racialese only Racial Ease!
