Love Poem: Hoax

Hoax

Color my history book 
Manipulate the mothers and destroy the youth
They disguise truth because of the way I look 
The way my people look, the way my continent looks 
Army suits and black boots march towards my village destroying our fruits
Now we starve naked but that’s that
Exploit our fruits, what’s that? 
It’s tough growing up black because in Africa poverty walks
The worlds greatest HOAX
