Abomination Nation - Republipigism
Republipigs oinking their pablum
in deafening harmonic farts
Deficating in Congressional seats
Worshipping the unholy Trinity
as Fascism, Racism and Authoritarianism
Brainwashes weak minded sheeple
The Beast vomits evil swill in alphabet soup
I can't bare to breathe in his poisonous exhale
His false prophet disciple worships at his feet
while innocent immigrants apply for Citizenship
Seeking asylum from killers and enslavers
Only to find the boarder sealed tight by criminals
Premeditated kidnapping, separating children from parents ...

Light, & Dark (Ombré Swirls)
Light, & dark, blended;
No evil comprehended,
Just two unkept hearts, finally mended.
Ombré colored, swirls.
One smooth flowing, the other rugged curls.
Regardless precious, he, an onyx stone, she, a lustrous sea pearl.
They duo mix, both, guiding wends.
The one blows, the other bends.
The one rises, the two ascend.
No evil comprehended,
Just two unkept hearts, finally mended.
Ombré colored, swirls.
One smooth flowing, the other rugged curls.
Regardless precious, he, an onyx stone, she, a lustrous sea pearl.
They duo mix, both, guiding wends.
The one blows, the other bends.
The one rises, the two ascend.

Post Traumatic
Post Traumatic forgive me if I seem a bit dramatic. I can't breathe but I am not asthmatic. I have someone knee pressing down on my neck. Kill on sight just because my skin is not white so my wrongful death is automatic.
Don't get me wrong this is not a black mans anger. It's just I am aware if a police officer is in fear for their life. That's a black man's danger. Police brutality is far from a black man's stranger. They say I am not a man. They call me a thug, or a black gang banger.
Why you roll your window up when I walk by? Tuck your pocket book in, yet you have...

The Labels
the world needs
to change & take
off its blindfolds
there's still too
much sexism
racism homo
& transphobia
open your eye
black and white
red and yellow
are just colors
intersex queer
non binary male
and female are
fucking labels
lesbian straight
sapiosexual gay
& heteroflexible
are orientations
what does it say?
we're human souls
labels are for clothes
to change & take
off its blindfolds
there's still too
much sexism
racism homo

I Know Why The Caged Bird Sing
By Any Means Necessary (Happy Birthday Martin Luther King, Jr.)
I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Mama, I know why the caged bird really sings
When the mind as an offering hears sovereignty echoed from the mountains let it ring
From the cradle of birth is to give authority to our mental dreams
Our deferred aspirations we seek to the highest of our esteem
How can I learn to fly when my heart cannot even walk ...

Prefixed.
They are referred to as " americans "
but, prefixed with this word ' black, '
or ' native ' or ' jewish ' or ' hispanic '
but never prefixed - White - and, that's a fact.
As John Wayne shoots another red-injun
and drawls, " the only good un is one who's dead '
and " that's the way it's done son, with a gun "
with such pictures the weak-minded are fed.
black becomes derogatory
as do native, spic and jew,
but it's White folk who write the story
drop the prefixes, start anew.

You People
The Mexicans hated when the Spaniards and French said, "you people"
Native Americans learned to hate these very same words
The term was placed on a historic reel and ran like a sequel
Two innocent words placed together and wished that they were never heard
The Irish and Scots played with it amongst themselves until the English took a liking
Unless you've done your research, you don't realize that Africans sailed with Vikings
The English learned to hate the sound of these words while suffering under French rule
The French in turn learned to...

The Klan (may not be a force but....)
Hatred
Taught by peers
Born from ignorance
Not questioning why
Following blindly
The burning cross

Disservice
that's what you do to yourself
when you allow such anger in your heart
I wonder if you'll know that before you're gone

Status Quo
Any other day, we could've made it
Any other day, We could've shared this world
We could had travel the globe, land to land without borders
You could had shared your garden, and I could had shared my water
White and brown sharing meals at the same fucking table
Equally sharing, no hostility, no dam labels
Any other day, we could've made it
Any other day, We could've shared this world
No looking for a nine or an uzi, you can't find it
The need never arose to ever design it
Peace has gone global, no need for the criminal minded...

Racism
Through out existence there has always been this void
And for whatever reason most manage not to see it and even avoid
It contains all that the universe has decided to discard
The vilest of essence, the darkest with no regards
In this void it's like a pit in space and time
I was ensnared by it's beauty, by both heart and mind
Although shapeless I saw it with form
The frigidity of it's heart became my norm
I reveled in it's darkness savoring the tranquility of death
The life that I had lived convinced me that this was the only...
