See me, feel me, fear me.
Here, there, everywhere.
Spectrum of perception radiates the environment.

I am melanin, skin, I am prejudice.
Reflection of judgement.
Red is dead, black is slack.
White is not right.
Brown not around.
Yellow everyone’s transgressor.

Stop! Go, caution.
Signals for the human traffic.
I fashion the body but not the soul.
Be blind to me or become shallow.

Basic in nature
Culturally, geographically painted by stature.
Welcome to the light, be aware of the dark.

I am complemented, matched, but scarcely under the surface.
Tan me, dye me, free me.
