This poem was nominated for best poem of 2005, written by an african child: 

When i born, i black.

When i grow up, i black.

When i go in sun, i black.

When i scared, i black.

When i sick, i black.

& when i die, i still black.

& u white fella..

When u born, u pink.

When u grow up, u white.

When u go in sun, u red.

When u cold, u blue.

When u scared, u yellow.

When u sick, u green.

& when u die, u gray..

& u calling me coloured??
