The ****** Word.
A blast of hatred of acid tongues,
A needless phrase to scold the tall,
A forgotten hero they never mention,
Take a look at the one called Robert Smalls.
A swipe by fist of foul means,
A dangerous concoction of sparks,
A cowards language of sorts,
Take a look at the one called Rosa Parks.
A definition of weakness in ruling,
A slap in the face of the now free,
A collapsed cult now gone forever,,
Take a look at the one called Isabella Baumfree.
A word is a word to fight and hurt,
A sentence pinned together from fools,
A paragraph of silence descends upon you,
The N word no longer a relevant tool.
A look at history and the modern day!
