Not Norwegian
What others say
I’m not white or black,
I’m light,
now get it right,
people tryin’ to stir up a dumb fight!
Stop your foolish sport,
I’m not short,
I’m fun size,
now tell me no lies,
in false guise,
because, my heart, I prize.
I’m not loud,
or overly proud,
I’m Puerto Rican,
not Norwegian!

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

I like the confidence in this! 🙂Whoever tried to argue otherwise just got served!
Never mistook those nationalities for each other... "Porto"? 🤔
Fun. 😊
