Balthazar

1. The New Testament tells a tale of three wise men, kings, who came from persia to give gifts to baby Jesus. One of these men was Balthazar. Black in complexion with a big beard, brought frankincense rocks to the child, believing that he would rise with its smoke to heaven.

2. A derogatery term for a person of African descent. The only rocks they carry on them these days is crack.

3. Nigger, Coon, Spook, Porch Monkey, Kaffa.

I knew a Balthazar that lived in New Orleans. Now he is dead.
