On a slow fire sit five cauldrons
Of steaming hate within
Overcooked entrails
Body parts of colored poets
Beefed in wails horny scales
Each cauldron its owners
Initials details
AJS, JF, TM,IDC, FB
Multicolored hate as a poem entails
White Tie and Tails
Blue blood pedigreed
White Colored Males
Lashing sepia toned
Dusky posteriors with
Cat o nine tales

Following the shadows of the skies
Waiting for the ships to sail
Eric Clapton Blind Faith
Seamlessly silent music prevails
An India Rope Trick man
Sleeping solicitude of a bed of nails
Writes poems sucked system derails
Assholes as poetic spam in emails
Multi colored men imprisoned
In the minds of white mans jails

Ps I give back to you what you gave to me in kind..this is what I mean faith is blind..
hate for the underpriviliged the ethnic the multi colored mankind..yes once again a poem unwinds.. from the face of a tatooed behind...
