hey billy

bit of a message here, so i don't feel right making comments on the poem. however, some suggestions did not escape me

Some of us are more
than some of the others are....don't think you need the "are". if you could find a way to parallel the structure of the first line ("some of ______" to match the "some of us") it would reinforce the structure/ pattern
Some of you are worse than the others....again, I think you could cut "than the others"
If it comes to who's the best
just ask yourself this;...here, i think you could either chop the "this" or the line entirely. it would make the ending more dramatic
Are you white?
sorry for so much trimming, but i really think it could bring out something strong
Written only for you to consider.
