Too White

Most Asian roles in Hollywood
Have gone to Caucasians to play,
Since for starring roles it was good
For the box office, end of day.
Oh, Asians could of course be cast
As needed to fill in the script.
But those race bending times are past.
The changing culture scales have tipped.
Asians today are on the rise,
Stepping on top of the white race.
So it should come as no surprise,
Asian stars will be commonplace.

Since John Wayne portrayed Genghis Khan,
Then an Asian will play big John.
