at end of our street
on council housing estate
when I were a young lad
lived someone who performed
in the Black & White Minstrel Show
broadcast by BBC
nowadays expect
it would be considered
quite politically-incorrect
& racist to say the least
I saw the show
but didn't know
the bloke
never saw him
made up in black face
we never spoke
a tad sad
there weren't any real black people
there at that time
subsequently
I often wore mime
white face in performance
