Charles Bukowski once wrote, “America doesn’t know tragedy ...”
I wonder if he’d still think that today ...

Black Lives Matter (4-5-4 Haiku)
Tears shed deep red
Now blood in their stead
‘One Nation’ dead.
R.

THE UNDERGROUND
Afraid of the dark,
Child?” No mama, I am
Afraid of the light.

Lofty Goals
In all cultures
Unconditional love
Is a lofty goal
Sadly it takes a death
To open eyes
Open hearts
To the beautiful ideal

Color Change Operation
Is there any reason
I should not
legally
change my color
to black?
Any kind
of reason?
Also, ask Alexa if
Jewish lives matter
“Hmmm, I don’t know that one.”

IGNORANCIES (SICK)
BELLIGNORANT:
Belligerently
ignorant: "All lives matter"
as racist defense

REPUGNORANT:
Yeah, I can see how
anti-fascism looks like
terrorism to you
---
MALIGNORANT:
An entity's state
when the stupid has begun
to metastasize

Racial Reflexions
Forget what you heard
About the white man
That he's rational
Gentle
And kind,
He's brutish
Violent
And driven by greed...
He's everything
At the right time.

common sense and racism
If you want folks
to see you as equal...
start noticing all that we
...have in common...
