Breakfast of Colonizers

White people sure don’t like being uncomfortable when we talk about racism,
not I’m afraid my child might die if he wears a hoodie uncomfortable,
not I’m terrified that if I reach for my wallet I will be killed uncomfortable,
not handcuffed before you are shot uncomfortable,
not a knee pinning you to the ground uncomfortable,
not I’m getting shot for being in my own apartment uncomfortable,
not even sitting in my own discomfort so I can examine it uncomfortable,
just I don’t want to feel bad while I eat my Wheaties uncomfortable
