Dear Racism,
I wonder why you exist.
Why you do harm too many people.
Just because we are a certain color, race, or even ethnicity doesn't mean you should treat us poorly.
Doesn't mean you should tell people to go back to where they came from.
Doesn't mean you should shoot us, beat us, or even try to kill us.
No matter the color, the race, or the ethnicity you are, YOU ARE HUMAN, I AM HUMAN.
I am not going to let you tell me or anyone to go back to their country.
To stop speaking their language because they're in America.
To stop acting like their race or their people.
I am proud of my culture and the cultures surrounding me.
I am proud of my race and all the races around me.
And to the people who follow racism, if you have nothing nice to say well don't say anything.
We didn't ask for your opinion in the first place.

Winner's Circle: Prompted #3
INTRODUCTION Prompted: #3 is over and done with. There were a total of 7 entries for this challenge, just like with Prompted #2. That was a bit surprising, considering this was a poetry challenge. The first poetry challenge garnered much more attention. Of course, one way to look at the drop in participation is that Vocal writers are not fans of the rondel.
