The Young Hero

I am surprised
when the singing woman doesn't really care
that women once weren't allowed to sing.

I am confused
to see black men reject February,
while ebon men embrace it.

I feel betrayed
by Colombians drinking Coca-Cola
who patiently remind me:

I made an ass of you and me
at the demonstration,
with my grin and friendly demeanor.

No one wants a $100 computer.
