The Grand Wizard
I could only imagine how this poem is going to go
When the words from my cerebral cortex begins to flow
Some may need an umbrella from a sense of past lineage pain
To withstand the rooted scars of ancestral rains
Readers, hold on to your seats
I’ll grasp your hand as our divided minds come to greet
Three little words
For anyone who’ve never heard
The history of such
That has affected years of hated, parades, demonstrations pretty much
Burning...

A Bigger Tree than Bigotry
In the shadows where bigotry grows,
A world divided by the seeds it sows,
Poplar trees stand, but their leaves turn gray,
In a forest where hope slowly fades away.
In the end of days, it’s our fate we must face,
With faith as our armor, we’ll shatter disgrace,
Holy Spirit guide us, through heaven and hell,
In this battle for souls, we’ll reclaim what fell
So let’s stand together, in unity we’ll pray,
For the light to return, chasing shadows away.
But with each prayer, hearts can find their way,
To rise above darkness, let love reign...

I Know Why The Caged Bird Sing
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
Animosity, resentment is always found in wagging tongues who doesn’t...

When truth isn’t Truth(Rudy G)
Rudy G (When truth isn’t truth)
What anyone would do to be able to put their head onto feathers
A long day is in the books and he has a drink and a smoke
Thinks about just what he’s doing
Peddling false narratives
Just to advance his position
He’s been doing it for years and years
Through the ranks of his rise
Hard driving D A comes on the radar
Doesn’t hide in his closet that he crossdresses
But the new President is impressed
Vincenzo says
As far as I’m concerned it’s Bedtime for Bonzo
...

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...

Holding Back the Blue Rot !
Holding Back the Blue Rot” [Blue Rot = the Police State]
I am not the bridge, I am the Keystone, the Arch, the Matriarchal form of being.
I am without racism, without Rot and free to stand a protectorate, a dome, the whole, the womb.
My back is no bridge, yet my shoulders are my cornerstones, my devout legs my pillars of foundation.
My skull, the beauty, a keystone of balance and wedged pressure holding the arch of time.
Again without ROT! A void with no haunted racial overtones, having to explain but when, when, when will the pure...

Rainbow Coalition
I recently watched the movie titled Alice, staring KiKi Palmer, a movie that debates the chronical aftermath of domesticated help still being held as slaves by plantation landowners.
It is the revered story inspired by true events resulting in the Emancipation Proclamation, signed on January 1, 1863, and how a landowner who fabricated to his slaves they were not free, and how he continued to enslave them for years following being free.
A very great movie to watch.

America
The time has come to lift up the carpet of deception and expose the dirt that you swept under it.
We do not care whether you can stand the smell of your own excrement or not.
Your opportunistic forefathers ran away from Great Britain and came to the west as wanders.
They settled in other people’s lands, and they reaped what they did not cultivate.
The Americans claimed that they discovered a land, but the land had already been inhabited by people.
So the country that you proudly call your home does not belong to you; it is a stolen land.
Your dishonest...

Discrimination Vs Preference
The law against discrimination is an infringement of the right to preference.
No other right is more important than the right to choose freely.
People have the right to choose who they want to work or associate with.
They also have the right to accept or reject unnatural practices.
When laws prevent you from doing these things, you reach a bad state.
Administrators of social medias have the responsibility to support free speech.
People who bluntly speak the truth definitely do not have many friends.
A person with integrity boldly stands up for...

Say you want a little bit of attention
You want to show daddy what you can do
Say you want a little bit of attention
You want daddy to notice you
You want to hang out with the big kids, yeah, sneak put into the night
Act out in school, hell yeah, skip class and then start a fight
Hell, walk around school with your underwear in plain sight
Let those good grades slip, shit you know what daddy likes
Hahaha you know what daddy likes when you rebel against society
You don't know anything about the issues, but you just can't let it be
