Two Poems from our Inspirational Poems, Motivational Poetry Collection

 
 
Too black
   
Author: Richard Jenkins
   
Poem:
Too black
   
  they take my kindness for.... weakness
they take my silence for.... speechless
they consider my uniqueness.... strange
they call my language.... slang
they see my confidence as.... conceit
they see my mistakes as.... defeat
they consider my success.... accidental
they minimize my intelligence to potential
my questions mean i am unaware
my advancement is somehow unfair
to voice concern is discontentment
if i stand up for myself i am too defensive
if i dont trust them i am too apprehensive
i am defiant if i seperate
im fake if i assimilate
my character is constantly under attack
pride for my race makes me too black

Objets` de` art
   
Author: Hemant Gawande
   
Poem: Objets` de` art
   


Human are like show items
Arranged on a mantelpiece
With season tastes change
Fashions vary, opinions differ
Decadence comes into prominence
Younger generation dethrones elder generation
Items are rearranged
Some are lucky ones
That during reshuffling
They get a chance
To remain on the shelf
While the misfortunate ones
Are either distorted
Or disowned at the first hand
Like ones share their agony
Into the darkness of a dank basement
While the creme` de` le` creme`
Rave about their finesse
& witness the razzle-dazzle
In an heavenly scintillating banquet hall
