What do you like to learn?

What do you like to learn?
Black history from books
Or twerk?
Which one?
Pick one?
Black history or twerk?
I think most would go for a twerk…
Cos nobody wants to read….
Nobody has a desire….
Some say none…
Maybe others say they don’t care….

This is why
Black people turn the other cheek
And prefer dancin
Cos life is so much easier….
They don’t wanna hear nor talk
About racism
Yet trauma is still repeatin itself…
Don’t wanna google
Don’t wanna have this hard discussion
About being black in America
Being black in the world
With your children….

You know they have questions…

Why twerkin?
Why not pick up a book
Instead of shakin your ass?
Don’t need to twerk on TikTok
But hey it’s on you….

Still today
On repeat
Teach me how to pop my tail
Let’s do a Megan thee stallion challenge
I don’t wanna learn about slavery
I don’t wanna talk about white supremacy….
No books
No discussion
Let’s have fun
Black people
Be dancin
Makin up their styles
Not realizin
We’re at war…..

What do you wanna learn?
I wanna learn how to drop it low
Instead of goin to the library
I wanna twirl my butt to sexy red
I don’t care about Sara Baartman…

Twerkin is the winner,
Black history lost its battle….

And all we still hear is
What’s happenin….

Not a whole lot of
Critical thinkin around
Just ignorance

It’s too sad…😢✊🏿💯©️ Kai C. 4-21-24

Don’t ever write this again!

Don’t ever write about racism
Religion politics Jews
Or maybe you can keep your poems
To yourself…ok?
Don’t write about about black power…
Just don’t write….
Write about love, and peace
It makes the world go round,
Right? People need love…
People need to have that
Feel good vibe, not the truth…
Alright?
Leave it in the dark…
Just don’t ever write this again…
Erase it….
It’s not you,
It’s not comin from a place of
Your heart, you’re listenin to that
trash…why are you writin like this?

Now I can hear a stern voice
In my head tellin me this….
A scenario…I can hear it yellin
At me, don’t ever write this again…

Is that mean I don’t have to speak up
From the paper? Would my message become
My never mind? Possible….cos
I fear and then fear would put me in a situation
Like I shouldn’t write that….

However people have voices
They shouldn’t be a limit….
I shouldn’t have one when it’s needed for
Somethin I should use it all the time
Cos somebody needs a message….

I don’t like when I am told
Not to write anythin ever again…
It’s not fair plus I don’t give a fuck
About feelings…

There are people who back away
Back off from my heavy poetry
Cos I am blunt….I’m a truth teller
Nobody likes the truth….you can say
I’m angry you can say I have compassion
I’m woke to a world where everythin doesn’t make
Sense….

And I gotta write a poem about it…
I gotta write what I observe….
People are crazy
Things are goin insane…..

So
Don’t tell me I can’t write this
Anymore,
You can’t read this anymore…..
You can scroll down and up
Load the page
Block me
Close your app
Or if I publish a book again,
Don’t read it
It’s that simple….

You got a lot of nerve to tell me
Not to write this again
Not to write a line again
With your big chest….

I’m goin to write this again
Whether you like it or not….✊🏿💯✍🏾©️ Kai C. 4-21-24

Tone deaf lyric

Oh Taylor
You came from a place
Of whiteness, lily whiteness
I heard your tone deaf lyrics
But, I didn’t listen to your song…
“I hate it here.”

What are you sayin?
What are you singin?
Cos I’m confused
You’re singin for white people,
Black girls love you, too
However

Have you read your history book?
Or you just act like there’s no racism….
Back then
Slavery was happenin, lynchings was happenin
And white women didn’t have rights….
White women have slaves…
Did you know that?

If you choose that decade,
You would own slaves
You would call them a nigger…
I’m just tellin the truth,

I don’t care if swifties come after me
I don’t care….,
Why would you want to choose that decade
In your I hate it here?

You came from a place where
Whiteness whitewashin the nine yards

Now am I tone deaf to you?
With this poem?
Cos your song ain’t barrin….

Yet you’re goin to ignore
People like me
Cos you don’t care….

Be a tone deaf songwriter
As you can be….
You would turn your other cheek
To someone who questions your words….
Just like you pretend Celine Dion wasn’t there….

Just sayin..
