Men and Women of Color

You,
of,
 the,
 blue apparel,
the,
 fountain,
of order,
and,
 organization,
in,
whom,
pristine,
just,
begins,
to,
define,
you,
in,
whom,
our,
fondness,
gravitates,
we,
aspire
to love,
you,
because,
you,
matter,
in,
our,
lives,
you,
of,
the,
black,
skin,
human,
lovely,
agreeable,
and,
the,
connection,
to,
our,
ancient,
ancestors,
in,
you,
lies,
the,
genome,
and,
prototypicality,
without,
which,
the,
spread,
of,
humanity,
would,
have,
been,
impossible,
if,
like,
one,
oral,
tradition,
so,
puts,
it,
that,
their,
Adam,
slept,
and,
from,
his,
ribs,
Eve,
was,
formed,
I,
say,
to
you,
black,
man,
black,
woman,
you,
are,
Adam's,
ancestors,
but,
why,
do,
you,
get,
to,
be,
less,
sung,
and,
the,
blue's,
baton,
finds,
home,
on,
your,
ebony,
skin,
or,
your,
blackness,
turns,
from,
sweetness,
to,
rage,
turning,
against,
your,
own,
kin,
and,
kith,
in
blue,
remember,
blue,
or,
black,
you, 
are,
both,
men,
and,
women,
of,
color,
reconcile,
to,
that,
fact,
as,
well,
to, 
an,
enduring,
heritage,
of,
which,
you,
in,
blue,
are,
a,
grandchild,
of,
the,
black color,
y'all,
are,
men,
and,
women,
of,
color.
