It it weren’t for
The ethnic minorities –
Some Caucasian folks –
Prejudiced to them would be
Discriminated against

Notes to this poem…
Humans are like that. They’ll just find someone else to pick on when one is no longer available, or allowed. Eventually, the groups discriminating will turn in on themselves to little factions within if there were nobody outside against which to discriminate any longer.
The W-series poems comprise mostly of haiku or tanka composed during walks I took on the portion of Halifax’s waterfront known as the Harbourwalk, during the warmer months of 2018 & 2019, when the Seabridge was in place.
