White Wilderness
I recall the yelling but silent voice of winter that broken December when the lights from lanterns shot up from their wicks with the fading strength of departing glows abroad. Twilights hastened through the spine of receding days, halting the approach of a wayward Christmas. The wilderness around us yielded froths from a puking snowstorm, fastening laces of Hell with strings of abundant sleet....

World's number one and two in batting's Who's Who
Yorkshire’s blessed treasure chest best take their Test berth as they surf the crest out on the hallowed turf The self anointed..God’s own country..didn’t rest..hasn’t disappointed..simple ploy Plucky…lucky to be an envoy that still has the joy..zest of a boy The honed treacle toned timbre of their timber toy Well when you’ve researched the top of the queue in...

You can't forget what you can't destroy
Rip the sheets of comfort of their privileged bodies Let the cold hit their skin To feel the harsh reality of life Fed with safety and security No longer will they be coddled by warmth Whiteness will not save you Your evil will be put to shame Your secrets pushed into the spotlight Pandering will not be allowed We are tired of...

Perfection is a lie told by the white man
Perfection is a lie told by the white man They say 'the fairer, the better' But with ego comes the self proclaimed Perfection Where what they say goes Where objectivity is something they claimed to own However it just goes to show pride will be their downfall Distracted by vanity and ego And their self distorted reflection They painted in the...

When the arms weave white nights
when the arms weave white nights, caressing your eyelids, only dreams know how to come out dry from the rain, like butterflies, spreading their wings to stop the drops, and the dew, humble servant washes your feet with clover honey to grow wings, melt the wax on the altar, and plant basil in your chest, let us float like the wind on swaying water …and...

To be black in a white world
The price of being black In a white world Is the cost some of us can't afford A currency we don't own Not because we don't have affluence But because they stole the wealth that inhabits our land The price of being black In a white world Is the unreachable expectation of measuring up to something we...

To the White Rose of Germany , In memory of Sophie Scholl and the White Rose resistance group
In halls where silence cloaked the dread, You raised a voice, though fear had spread. With leaflets fluttering like doves in flight, You lit a candle in the night. Not with guns, nor iron might, But truth and courage, fierce and bright. A rose in winter, pure and still, Defying hate with steadfast will. Your words, like whispers through the air, Asked hearts to...

Tulips The last time we chatted, it was tense But nothing without you makes sense. Its been a fall, since you set the standard high. still remember when we met ,you still make me shy. Oh my sweet darling you smelled of tulips. Should I click the send button, tempting But you seem happy ,not that I’m complaining. I wont lie no one...

The white man's culture
A threat of superiority Leads to inferiority Of a heart consumed By a venomous poison Of hate lead by jealousy A darkness claim their soul Convinced that an enemy Was those loved by the sun With skin oh so golden Threatened by a culture To which they steal like vultures Begging to be chosen Colonising a moment Belonging to those with a darker skin colour All...

Us be grateful for what?
Let them eat cake But with no hands And a mouth sewn shut Why us Why must we suffer with crumbs And be grateful To be grateful when slavery ended When in fact it was they who started it To feed us poison instead of the antidote Then feign confusion to why it didn't work The world sees you as a victim And...

Premium Member Black and White Lies
A lie that is coloured white A lie that make things seem all right. A lie that leaves you asking why Discovering those lies that made you cry. Lies exposed, were meant as a joke The lies that many hearts have broke. Lies to conceal a secret love affair The liars lie, is the truth they swear. Scheming lies to scam for money Lies...
