trumped: a new america

3/6/2017

​kidnapped 
Stolen at birth 
It's innocence 
It's Potential 
stripped away by its 
Perverted founding fathers 
Swept under Holy sheets of white 
Stained in blood
Embellished with Manifest Destiny 

We thought we could escape this feigned ghost
Spotted in deep red
We hoped we would find it
Remove the blotches 
Revive the spread 
Wash the flag clean
Freedom, hope, abundance
america 

But, Nations built on sinkholes 
Don't stand long
In the meantime we
Inhale the fumes oozing from Pipe dreams 
we know tar is filling our lungs 
still, We call this air clean

We remembered America as an ideal
The prodigy child 
Until
Trump 
​
Trump was us stumbling upon
America's young limp body
With cold eyes
rotting away in a corn field
her soul sucked out 
Left to disintegrate
By the invention of Whiteness 
That plagues both races
A cure that division won't allow 

Oh but we won't mourn
Her loss soul 
for We have mourned already 
my people knew
Now we simply have more proof 
Trump has placed a mirror to 
The festering sore 
Of dreams deferred 
These scars are where past and present meet
In this Rejoice
It is time to sever the limb 
The time is nigh

children of fire blood and flesh 
Dance beneath the moon
For the revolution calls
It's howling for you.

Are we full yet?
Have we been filled to the brim,
With the rotting corpses of black bodies,
Whose lives were sucked from them,
By authoritative hands?
Has the last sneaker been lodged in our throats,
Or is it more we we can stand?

How many times does white supremacy,
Have to make itself evident before we believe it?
Maybe when white women and children,
Pull out the picnic baskets from their attics,
To sit beneath motionless black bodies,
Swaying from trees like ornaments,
As The scent of strange fruit cleanses their palettes. 
When viral videos return to postcards we will see. 

Then we will understand.
Revolution is sometimes written in the permanent ink of blood. 
We have shared our due for far too long. 
I'm talking Action 
Marching is nice but it's passive
Spreading the word is good
But we need more to happen
Everyone waiting for the first person to move 
That first person may have to be you

It's time for them to catch up. 
They don't know pain. 
Soulless people can't feel
But their pockets hurt
Do not finance the oppressors
And watch them burn.

Lavish cages

My room has no windows
But it's a nice room 
Walls the color of pussy
Ceilings white as cum
It's disposition doesn't scream sexual ecstasy

It is an art gallery
Equally arousing to me
It's a pretty room
But when the lights are off
All of this is engulfed in a black fog
Caged in by plastered walls 
Not allowing a slither of light to creep through

This is life carved by society's hand 
We have been caged
​in pretty rooms without Windows 
the illusion is the veiw
