From the hate filled roots in the soil of humanity
Branches that have heads hanging in shame
The racist family tree
Lynching a punishment
For all to see
The white mans gift to his
Posterity..
The war of the supremacy
Of races based on color
Caste creed ethnicity
Great men
Martin Luther King Jr
Mahatma Gandhi
Gave their lives
To end this human atrocity
But a legend of
Mans hate for man
Continues unfalteringly
Killing maiming raping
Brutalizing continuously
Beneath layers hiding its
Evil serpent head inconspicuously
Festering fetid fraternity
Whites blacks browns
The entire gamut of calumny
Hitting one or the other community
Man the most intelligent
Of Gods creation
Playing God
Destroying
The planet
His priority
With megalomaniacal
Insanity
the black man in fetters
manacles and chains
justice liberty inequality
