White Duck posed in contemplate
Outlandish O’ a Black Duck race...


Poem Artwork

White Duck posed in
contemplate
Outlandish O’ a
Black Duck
race
White duck tufts a
motivation
Unaware in gloating his
discriminations


Black ducks wade,
some in daunt
while his brothers act so
nonchalant
Black ducks wet in streamed expressions
Quacking whitey ’s twaddle their destinations

White duck waver your
feather wiles
Black ducks
treading rows of, in single file
White duck face your
opponent ‘s huddle
Peace can mingle in humble puddles

White Duck, Black Ducks

 Reviews of "White Duck, Black Ducks"
Reviewed on October 24, 2006
A social commentary: each people group living in harmony with each other. This is starting to fray in some quarters as one group within a host nation makes demands of it that leads to segragation. Population shifts within Europe also cause tensions as the door into the host nation is just too open. Nations in conflict in parts of the world. People within nations destroying each other. The list could go on.
Whit Duck, Black Ducks had me thinking along these lines. Dont' know if harmony was your intention, clearly sounds like it, but how ideal it would be. Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder dueted on a same two colour theme: 'Ebony and Ivory'.
