The Rainbow

When ugly knocks at your door
You open and say with vim
“Hello Beautiful..”

Speak the truth
Say ‘Ugly’
Are you hurt?
Are you dead?
Why do you fear the truth?

Say it as it is.
You are a hypocrite.
Yes, I do not love you
Your smiles are serpentine
Your fangs ready to pierce

Why do you fear the truth
I am ashamed
To call you my friend
You hate the truth
Call ugly ugly
I have seen light skinned
I have seen multi colored rainbows
I have seen black turned yellow
I have laughed
I will laugh
I am laughing .
