Not a Rebel

I’m the total opposite on of a rebel. A

My values hold me to what is right. B

I was taught by a young age to go wherever my sister goes. C

My parents mostly sheltered us. D

Both were a protective woman and man. E

I’ve always been a lover not a fighter at any rate. F

Once the kids realized that, I was being picked on at an increasing rate. F

I was bullied everyday by the neighborhood “rebels.” A

My parents taught me to never mistreat due to the color of woman or man. E

Even as a kid I knew that doing so wasn’t right. B

I never wanted anyone to be hurt the way other kids did to us. D

“Treat others as you want to be treated” that’s how the saying goes. C

“Being bullied in school is just how it goes…” C

I guess it must be according to national rate. F

So called “professionals” say that it’ll help “strengthen” us. D

They thought it would give me the energy and drive of a rebel. A

Well then what about when I am called ugly and dark? Is that right? B

The ridicule of one’s peers can weaken any man. E

I met a rather cute man. E

While we sat and chatted as the traffic goes. C

As the familiarity strengthened, I felt just right. B

We wondered if something could be done to lower the cop killing rate. F

What I didn’t know, was that he was quite the enraged rebel. A

He was an anarchist who believed that killing white people was good for us. D

“An eye for an eye does not save us!” D

“You’re just an Oreo, man!” E

I’m Black on the outside and white on the inside; according to a rebel. A

We can’t kill other races to get peace, that’s not how it goes. C

Yet I’m a traitor to desire to negotiate, than see black folks killed at such a high rate? F

I must have missed something, right? B

I was sure that the man had been crazy; that I was in the right. B

I still feared for all of us. D

I feared for the safety of my family, myself, and even that stupid man. (To a certain rate) F

Still, the answer to violence is not “anything goes.” C

Civilization shall not fall due to any man. E

As I said, I am not a rebel. A

I will still do what’s right, despite the words of that man. E

Sure things still are hard for us as the years come and goes. C

At any rate, I am not a rebel. A
