black
badge of inferiority
white
badge of superiority
police
badge of authority
freedom
badgered by conformity
Culture
Under the Blanket
it’s a cold world
and that I’ve learned
I heard someone say
do not call it racism
call it poverty
then it sounds fixable
less people will empathize
they will be faulted for needing assistance
regarded as lazy and inept
it will appear economic
this is temporary
there is a solution to this
change your economic situation
by changing reality
so
get education
get a nice job
move family out of the ghetto
BUT
no matter where you move
no matter what degree you
no matter your neighborhood
you are STILL BLACK!
that is an UNCHANGEABLE fact
a truth-
your physiognomy
is your geography
is your reality-
and that is the first thing seen on you
the first truth you are known for
ethnocentricity
not your degree
job
nor neighborhood
so the problem is NOT economic
the label is NOT poverty
it is RACISM!
the only thing confusing is
your definition and understanding of
what racism is
and the rhetoric that hides it
call it discrimination
call it oppression
call it poverty
then it will seem as if resources will help you climb out
but not racism,
because it implies you are stuck,
do not call it racism!
because no one will admit to you that you are stuck
and they don’t want you to believe that you are
then there is no way to control a person with no options
or hope
yet what you suffer, is because the color of your skin..
my skin
and your denial
all of yours!
so the blanket drops
telling you to be, and stay, warm and comfortable
Nefr Tp(nefer tep)–the highest good
control of
thoughts
emotions
devotion to
purpose
have in the ancestor’s ability to teach the truth
faith in ability to
assimilate the truth
and
wield the truth
freedom from resentment
under the experience of persecution
and
under the experience of wrong
cultivate ability to
discern between right and wrong
and
discern between the real and unreal
Let Maat be Free
peace, prosperity, health.

This Sad Race View of the World
the electricity
and affinities
of Ethnocentricity
emboldens a propensity
thickening race with density
predisposing identities
with superiority
and inferiority
ingrained proclivities
that which suppresses empathy
transfused with enmity
domination over competition envisions an enemy
denominations conquer congregations provisioned with
the electricity
and affinities
of Ethnocentricity
Inundation by Separation
let the church decree!
“separation of church and state”
and the small print might say
to create a safe space
that justifies world, religious and cultural war
and hate
abstaining from judgment,
and damnation as fate
with land conquered and stolen,
now kept in place
absolution and repentance,
granted on one day
disconjoining secular life,
from the sacred way
as the practice of daily spirituality,
has lost its commonplace
Compensated Reality
through terror-
psychological, physical, and systemical-
through mayhem-
created, formed, and ordered chaos-
through control of information-
media, education, and institutions-
the notions of supremacy,
superiority,
and majority are pushed
and overtime,
believed.
but
supremacy
has no need to manipulate
nor infiltrate
it, just is.
supreme
therefore a society-
created and run-
with a subliminal method of manipulation
is herded as unwitting sheep
reinforcing subconscious beliefs
with reenacted unconscious behaviors
believing themselves conscious
but they don’t know
their hate is learned
their fear is learned
therefore,
their behavior is learned
they,
never had a chance
we,
never had a chance
to be
together
to be
ourselves
false notions and illusions
kept alive by the thought of their existence
never disbelieve white supremacy
because reality is fiction
