The ways in which the poet has compared the two casts shows how the blacks and whites are still not equal as the whites go to a ‘new, up-market, haute cuisine’ and the blacks are at a ‘working man’s café’ which sells ‘bunny chow’ and they eat on ‘plastic table’s top’ and also ‘wipe your fingers on you jeans, spit a little on the floor: it’s in the bone’.
