Let Them Know

Negritude has been invaded, by carefully instilled dread of better change while misery endures a standing ovation Power is methodically toned down in phases, to colonise freedom… Don’t allow it The future is now related, servitude ingrained by liberation’s inflated egos’ quest to quench, Blind to constitutional elevation of these masses, and an impending storm, We are not surrounded by defeated fighters… These lies are unfounded This battle cannot be grated, By weakly defined attempts to wrench a revolution from our roasted patience, History coloured in sweat may lie forlorn but piously spawns patterns in melting snow Don’t let it slip unseen into a miserly pit… Let them know you know
