i can pass as white much more easily than my brother

as a result i receive a lot of white privilege

but my dark features and ‘ethnic’ nose

means that i can also come off as ‘exotic’

so its never very surprising that

when people find out about the more

deviant

activities and lifestyle

that i represent or whatever

people nearly always

quietly peer from the corner at my body

slide their eyes over my outlines 

and are always startled to see

my little coal eyes

staring at them 

after my breasts
