Reject the Self-Hatred, Part I
Programmed fools demonize our culture,
try to undermine, demoralize,
say that it’s all ‘white supremacist,’
it’s ‘patriarchal,’ ‘all built on lies.’
Overblow every mistake they find,
project onto us all...

Skin Bigot
It seems these days, across the land,
that the Klan has somehow got a tan.

Premium Member Having Felled It
The warmth no longer comes
it seems to only leave.

The furry ones, all
caught in hypnotic disbelief:
hardening ground's

unchosen by women and men,
then build those traits...
