    I liked this one... I didn't see any racism, just a portrayal. But I dont know, it flowed, and

    I liked that part really well.
    I liked this poem, but not as well as some others you have written.

    carwash people


    they have nothing better to do,
    I guess.

    sometimes when the business is slow
    I stand against the sandwich table
    and look at them through
    a foggy plastic window.
    they're mostly blacks,
    some Mexicans,
    a few whites.
    I can tell when it's a black guy
    by the
    BOOM BOOMBOOM
    of his damn stereo.

    every Saturday
    they're out there
    washing
    waxing
    vacuuming
    hoping to score
    a piece of ass for the night.

    I prefer a rag
    and a bucket of soapy water,
    myself.
    (to wash my car with,
    not to screw.)
    but I'm not trying to impress
    and I get a warm woman
    every night.

    BOOM
    BOOM.

    I've never felt any racism from crazy, maybe I'm just missing it.

    It was shocking to read that in the poem, but I see it as an observation of a situation, not an actual comment on certain races.

    I like the poem, too.
