I Chafed

I was a nanny once
I worked
for a family
that was listed
in the directory
of bluebloods

Privleged by birth

Entitled
just because

They showed me a place I never knew exisisted

A private club
that allowed neither
blacks nor jews

Jews
were welcomed
everywhere else
in this town
but not here

If you were black
you had to show
a work permit
to be in town after 6 pm
otherwise get
on the other side
of the waterway

I saw
Mar- A- Lago
before
Trump did

He's there now
