So he said to me: 'What kind of Asian are you? ' And I said back: Well that's a loaded question, what do you expect me to be? Because any way slice that egg-roll I'm still pretty much what you want to see I've played many a far east stereotype Awkward math genius Cold and calculated Kung-Fu expert Assistant to 'Dr Jones, you crazy! ' You want me to drive, how so? I can give you Tokyo drift, Jeremy Lin, Mario Kart, Tiger woods and... Blinker left on for almost half a mile I am the foremost expert on all things Asian The Meiji Era and the ban of the Samurai? Done. Confucianism versus Daoism? I'll give it to you with no slant. What's the difference between Asian cereal type one and two? Well, let me tell you, let me tell you everything you want to know about my culture let me tell you in a Mulan-esque soliloquy staring at the mirror asking: 'Who is that girl that I see! ' Let me tell you about Jackie Chan and about Bruce Lee, and about how they're related-by blood- to me Let me tell you about being so marginalized, it's to the point of 'I really can't believe that's Asian! ' Let me tell you about derogatory terms and origins of words such as: chink and gook let me tell you about the struggle of Asian parents not knowing the language, so we, Ate pet food because it was cheaper Let me tell you about the job of interpreter When you're still playing with Lego blocks but you're English is already that much better than your parents Let me tell you about honor and dignity Let me tell you about a society that projects us as nothing but the secondary role and never the leading man Let me tell you all the things you don't want to know like how chink, comes from the clinking of metal to railroad as the slaves built train-tracks for this country to be connected Like how the 'zipper head' down the street is called that because the way out heads split open- when struck with assault weapons or how, Jeeps, ran over and left marks across corpses and how someone clever thought that we were only good to unzip Or like how, Every time you lump an Asian person into one culture it systematically making us assimilate into an america we thought was better than our war torn home and every time you confuse me with some other nationality that I might share similar features to Is stripping away my individuality and I still feel the shame of being Asian the heat and pious dedication of June 11,1963 the envy of blond hair and blue eyes and I still remember thinking where all the boys who look like me, on TV, were the broken words from my mother and father stage diving off of my tongue the anger i felt when those kids thought I would get them sick and I still feel the ash of the incense burn my hand when i pray; for my family and I still remember thinking my skin was what i was worth and I still Feel the iron work of my bones grow stronger with every train of thought that passes by and I still feel pride and I still feel heritage and I still feel chinese and I still Feel Vietnamese and I still Feel American and I still Feel.
