My eyes are not blue,
they are hazel, which genetically
is a form of brown.
I am of the hot-blooded
pre-mutation permutations,
the ancient nations,
who speak from the heart.
The Injun in me won't lie to you,
because lying is a form of disrespect.
The Jew in me will not stop studying,
because studying is a form of ascent.
The Pygmy in me, of ancient birth,
will not let you destroy the earth.
We, the brown-eyed part,
will speak to you from the heart.
