Racial Colors

Yellow
violet
green…they came at the door rushing
in tens
groped
held
tied me
tight
poured cold colors pink
sprinkled murky water
bottled from common tap
they
cheered
laughed and yelled
united colors of India
come evening
they gathered all
except me
for a meaty meal
I asked
why am I not on the list
you are an outsider of another caste here
in came the answer
I said
you said
united colors of India
this noon
aha
that was just for fun
and
you were a point of that
remember
in spite of colors
we still are divided
you jerk
they yelled in chorus
and I died
a racial death
