Color War
Her tangerine wallet
clashed with her marmalade purse
Purple pleated pedal-pushers
just made things much worse
No eye had she for integration
her colors smacked of segregation...

Segregation Today, Segregation Tomorrow
"our budget allows for
one janitor, and that spot
is taken,"
is what he said
before he took one
look at my credentials
"sir, I come to ask
about the teller job,"
I says and he just
leaves
turns around to say
"come back in 25 years"...

Segregation
The bus is full
except for a seat at the back
designated for minority dissenters,
free thinkers and libertarians.
A youth demands my seat,
I stare straight ahead.
The bus grinds through its gears
as passengers glare or sneer....

Thinking Gone Lazy To Fight
Thinking gone lazy,
to fight
fire with fire,
racism with racism,
injustice with injustice,
exclusion with exclusion,
segregation with segregation,
because
"God is great,
beer is good,
and people are crazy."

Aftermath
The truth is out there, a prominent decree
Choosing not to see it is cruel
Turn your blind eye, deny reality
Then you have been branded a fool
Do what you will, do what you must
While preparing for interrogation
I’m not the law, I’m not the judge
Who after life decides segregation...

Segregation
We where all humans until
Race disconnected us
Colour differentiated us
Love blindfolded us
Money controlled us
Wealth classified us
We where all humans until
Politics divided us
Hatred filled us
Religion separated us
Tradition left us
Technology inclined us
Pride came to us...

Biden 2020
Biden 2020
Emotion Bought In.
Invested Nihilism.
Kamala, Biden.
Hate hypocracy?
KKK, segregation
Big D. history.
Tear down the statues.
Democratic Party Sin.
Tear it down right now.
Trump grabbed the kitty?
Biden sexually fondled!
Fems love their Biden.

in her school frock

Why I Loathe the Left
Zoom call “White Women” and “White Dudes” for Kamala raises millions.
What hypocrites you all are!
What next? Trannies and muslims and black dudes for Kamala?
Democrats love segregation. Always have.
Imagine the media if Donny held a White Dudes for Trump fundraiser?
How blind and dumb do you have to be? WTFU!...

Peace Or Not
We wish to live in peace
How can it be so?
With guns and war
School shootings and rights taken
Land of the free?
More like home of the oppressed.
Claiming to be free
Without knowing freedom
Stop the lies
Stop the hate
No more segregation
We stand as one
Under our
Red white and blue flag
Our symbol of freedom
Is not free...

Spectacular
Seldom told is my story
People only seek glory
Evil eyes are very tragic
Caught up in the magic
To me life is astonishing
Amazing, daring, breathtaking
Could be you are the complication
Uninformed, so fall into segregation
Live, love, dream with not doubt
Ardently chase them with clout
Reality bites when the mind is out

Campaign Within
Removing the mindset
of racial segregation
In this nation is in need.
Because we were freed.
But still there is greed.
Selfish indeed
Meaningless elections
Corruption accepted
And the amount of mellinin in your skin
Determines your ethnicity
Then ponder which is worse and which is better
The apartheid era
Or the post-apartheid error?...

My People
The night is bold, so as the actions of my people.
The stars are bright, so as the future of my people.
The storms sometimes are harsh, so as the actions of my people towards wrong doings.
As the curiosity of their future mounts, so the segregation of the people they mingle with mount.
Fearless also is the African elephant.
Fearless is the mind of my people....

She Walks Alone
a
portrait
of courage.
watched like a hawk;
carrying weight of her race on shoulders,
confident black girl walks to all-white school
segregation
now a thing
of the
past.

The Beatles Against Segregation
In 1964 the Beatles toured the USA
And they stood against the Segregation way
John said they would rather lose the cost
Than take the stage with a segregated crowd as it was a loss
Even in these modern days where this stance
Makes you hip in your current civil rights dance
They stood tall and did not fall
And know it at that time a courageous call.

Above Everything
Above racism, nepotism, communism, sexism,
ambition, pollution, domination, seclusion,
God reigns!
Way above segregation, self-promotion,
physical illumination, elevation,
apartheid, genocide, cyanide, religious pride
God abides!
Floating above Coptic, Catholic politics,
toxic doctrine, elitist foolishness,
putrid imaginings,
God in His Omnipotent Majesty reigns!...

We Need To Eat
we need to eat veggies
cruciferous cabbage cauliflower
brocoli brussel sprouts
collards kale kohlrabi
cancer away
we need to excrete then
anger wrath hatred
jealousy judgement gossip
cancer away
we need to eat
beet tomato tomatillo
leek garlic onion guard
bitter and artichoke lettuce
let us excrete purge
accumulation possession greed
segregation fornication discrImination
life is beautiful...

Let Love Lead
I know you have ears,
Listen before you end up in tears,
Hatred is cancerous,
Segregation is dangerous.
No need to murder a brother,
Born by a mother,
We all belong to tribes,
We can live in unity and thrive.
Tribalism promotes nepotism,
It fosters Satanism,
Again, favoritism is evil,
A monster making us uncivil.
Our skin is black,
Africans don’t move back,
Let love lead,
This I plead....
