Dicslaimer: I do not own To Kill a Mockingbird. This is mearly a fan fiction.
Intruders
An' all this time I thought she was sane.
All I wants is some time.
Time without them white trash
But no!
Miss Cal's got to prance into church with white chillun
They's her "comp'ny" she says
But you know what?
They's just like the rest of them.
White
Nothing but colored-haters
Somebody's got to stop her!
If she doesn't make them leave…
I reckon I will!
And it won't be pretty!
There can't be no one in this church of blacks who's against me, right?
What?
Nothing but a troublemaker?
I reckon all I'm doin' is keepin' the peace.
Any of them white trash find out their kind is here
They'll blame it on us
They always do.
You'll see someday.
Then you won't be so willin' to be kind to them
A black man can't trust a white man without getting' hurt
But I guess I'm the only one with enough sense to realize that.
Note to reviewers: I hope you enjoyed this poem. I won't tell you who's supposed to be talking because anyone who's read the novel should be able to figure it out. It's to test my characterization skills. Hint: It's not a major character and this person was not in the movie. As it says in my profile, I do need good constructive criticism. Anyway, enjoy and review!
