My sperm donor ran from his responsiability, & took it too the grave with him without his legacy not being tarnished one bit! The luxeries of the stereotypical white man cop!

Maybe
I shouldn’t talk about racism
With you
Maybe we’re argumentative
To each other….ya we live it,
We experienced it….
But you witness longer than I have….
All I’m sayin is that this is a setup….
This is a chess game
Black people who doesn’t see it for
Themselves…I’m tryin my best to explain

That racism is power…and black people
Can’t be racist at all…white supremacy should
Be studied from the back to the front….

Cos everybody around me
From what I observed
Is utterly confused….

I may be wrong
I may be right
On this topic

I only understood
What racism is
And how it works

When I do have
A discussion with you,
Our offense
And disagreements
Become our battlefield

I was only tryin to
Get you think
Cos you got common sense
And you’re intelligent
Put your ignorance and feelings
To the side and use your
Critical Thinkin….

Racism
White supremacy
Is usually a everyday issue
Cos black people has to go through it
As a daily routine
Even when they don’t recognize it…
It’s in our faces
And most times
We’re blind and deaf not to pay
Attention to the oppression…
Also we’re mentally sick…..

Honestly I think it’s difficult
To talk about racism, cos nobody wants to
Speak about it…sometimes it’s easy
Cos today’s events happened
A lot…I could say the today’s events are repeatin patterns
Like recyclin shapes…

It’s why I keep bringin up this subject
Again and again and again In my poems
It’s my passion and it does affects me
I may not experience it a lot
But I do have an empathic soul for
Black people, for us….

I thought teachin white supremacy through metaphors
Can help
I thought I could bring the anger out of them….
I thought talkin about our conditions could be a part of our healin progress…
I thought tellin us historical truths about us could be another medicine…
I can’t save all black people across the globe, but I know
I can give them a voice, a reminder of why we’re so important in the first place….
And the fact that we’re all we have…nobody is our friend….

Maybe
We shouldn’t have a conversation
About racism with each other,
You and I gets so awkward
Little uncomfortable
We don’t have to…
I’m talkin about black people
Like they have feelings…
Like they’re humans
They’re my people…
I’m not an activist
I’m not an advocate
I’m just another voice of my black race….

Ya what I said you might get offended
However you gotta understand why
And this is also your people as well…
