For the dreamers
who'd rather live white than free.
And channel the hubris of hue
To conflate liberty
With trans-Atlantic ****
And slavery.
A captive beast
Shares not the butcher's dream.
His cosmic struggle
Demands a course higher
Than filet du-jour.
A course that preserves his body
In it's natural state.
Free of *******
Free of hate,
Free of fear.
Free to dream his cosmic dream
Beyond the hubris of hue.

Free of hate,
Free of fear.
