Being Yet Nothingness

The images of slavery in your mind you need to revamp

it was not a day at Bel Air Summer Camp


Today PETA would not let even animals that way be harmed

on any plantation or farm


Back breaking work endlessly soiling in the sun

and at night still NO fun


Hoping not to be the victim of Massa's date rape

sadly both males and females that fate they did not escape

If you failed in your attempt to runaway

from the business end of a rope your lifeless body would sway


Your surroundings were the definition of repulsiveness

you slowly became an emotional zombie, a poster child of being yet nothingness

I wrote this 3 years ago when I was outraged about what Kanye West said about people choosing to be slaves.
