color blind

you don't see color 
but every time you see a rainbow 
you gawk and sputter 
stop perverting god's colors 
you perverts 

you don't see color
red white and blue
camouflage green
back the blue
banknote green

you don't see color
because you claim all the colors for yourself
colonizing pigment
because when the color reminds you of yourself
when you own the rights to the colors
when color works in your benefit
it is the paintbrush of god

but when they don't
when they remind you of your sins
of your hate
of your unearned privilege
it is agenda

we've come a long way
be positive
i don't see color
you shouldn't either
who is the racist here?
not me
it's the black people
not the white
whats wrong with being white
i don't see color
it all looks white
