White people.

They forbid a Negro to get an education, then mock him for a simpleton; pay him pennies then laugh at his cheap clothes; hire him to pound someone and call him a brute for doing their bidding.


I take their money and their scorn, loathing their idiocy.

But this white man sees too much. I’ll keep my distance.

The Three Gables: Outfoxed

Rating: G
Author's Notes: “Oh, if I had the money I would go round the world.”


Such a sympathetic couple, mused Mrs. Maberley. So sad they had lost their son too.

She settled herself at the hotel’s escritoire.

And so charming. So hesitant and bashful when they suggested a donation to their hospital…

Mrs. Maberley sighed and finished drafting her international telegram to Scotland Yard.

Unfortunately for these foxes, this chicken was a tough old bird.



A/N: "One of the most dangerous classes in the world," said he, "is the drifting and friendless woman... She has sufficient means to take her from country to country and from hotel to hotel… She is a stray chicken in a world of foxes.” (LADY)
