do not write about me as if you know me

kindly leave that wine for later,
I’ve had enough, I’m almost drunk,
of all you’ve told, this is a chunk.
don’t call my name like you don’t find
my kind dangerous in your mind.
I know this one you can’t debunk,
we’re sinners in each other’s faith.

you like the colour of my skin
only when it’s time to buy things,
tolerance is what gives us wings,
don’t act like me, I’m not your twin.
we’re sinners in each other’s faith.
