Nigger Please Poem by Ariel Miles

Why is there so much conflict about the word 'nigger'
I'm 'black'
well caramel complexion
& I take no shame in it
Okay Okay
So...
Niggers were slaves
& I heard that
at picnics
they would pick a 'nigger' to hang
So the timberland logo
Is the tree that we were hung from
& that's my slave master riding the horse on polo
whoa! ! !
Why say 'we'
I'm living in a time when 'niggers' are free
I purchase clothes from designers
that I heard never converse with 'niggers'
Like
I seriously have a closet full of Tommy Hilfiger
F.U.B.U
is ugly if you ask me
For Us By Us
yea right
I rather purchase True Religion Jeans
& these companies target us 'niggers'
'cause we put most of the shoes on their feet
You claim
that you don't want drama
& that
you've suffered enough pain
Sticks & stones may break your bones
but a name like 'nigger' causes rage? ! ? ! ? !
Nigger Please! ! ! !
