Funny- My first Tanka

Tanka
Pronunciation: 'tä[ng]-k&
Function: noun
Etymology: Japanese
Date: circa 1877
: an unrhymed Japanese verse form of five lines containing 5, 7, 5, 7, and 7 syllables respectively; also : a poem in this form -- compare HAIKU

I've been saying I was going to write some Tanka's just cause folks don't ever talk about 'em. Probably never heard of 'em before. Well, here's my first tanka, ya'll. Hope you dig...

Funny

I find it funny
Call me nigger I get mad
Yell out racism
African American
Then I act like a nigger
