As White Would Rule This Day
When black would rule each day
and white compete for fire-crossed night
Degenerate monopolies
without room or time for color's nuance
cooperative slow truth and beauty harmonies
outlasting endless distressed dissonance,
surprising lack of resolving intuitions,
absence of inspired re-investments in cooperative intent,
When dark climate clouds rule each potential thanksgiving day
and white supremacists compete in post-millennial nightmares
of jihad terrorism
against healthy multicultural communions,
Against resonant nurturing nuance,
Against resilient democratic process and co-empowerment,
For fueling competitions in stressful dissonance
between loyal thanksgiving truths
and matriarch-wombed experience of hope
Then grateful sensual beauty
of full-octave Father shining sun days
outcast our wealthy capital reinvestments
in full communion EarthTribe stage
with 2020 light of day
bright for ultra-nonviolet night.
