Dark Fruits
Strange Fruit choreography
speaks to me of seeing
and smelling
this strange evil fruit
of hatred
and bigotry
and fear
and straight white man
perpetual menace.
Choreographing trauma
only infrequently translates the words
of DarkHole poems
Rhetoric hoping to carry
the emotional shock of evil awe
and dark timeless burdens
Terrifying wonder
as perceived
within this Strange Fruit Dark VerbalView
Rather than the more interior non-verbal feelings
of profound inhumane disarray,
division,
hate climates
and monocultures
of straight white monotheistically judgmental,
capitalist-driven,
commodification
and disposition
of semi-domesticated talking animals
live stock,
breeding stock,
slave labor
Too smart for their well-endowed britches
and es
Strange Dark Fruit,
the enslaving racist face
frantically encircling
straight white fascism
in full flagrant,
strange southern fruit,
industrially resilient horror.
Strange Fruit Anthropocene,
with polyculturally felt choreography
of ecopolitical
disempowering/unenlightened
monochromatic lack of appropriate appreciation for color,
and drama,
and with way too much
Patriarchal-Capitalist
monotheistic
StrangeFruit trauma.
