Panda

panda doesn't understand the racial parts of humans
the region and ethnicity, ceo or shoeman.
He sits and eats bamboo all day
sometimes decided to romp or play
And never cares for his appearance,
He's looking for a cozy clearance.
Panda doesn't get the fact that we colonize and group appart
Hair and skin or short and thin he really has to fart.
His little snout will burry down
to find some food or scrounge around
then, he climbs upon a tree
With padded paws so gracefully.
Panda can not comprehend the humans image problems
He's roundish, floudnish,, almost soundless 
A boop-ish, squash-ish face. 
He doesn't get the racism,
He's content, it doesn't phase him.
He doesn't get the big idea 
as he's black, and white, and asian...
