as serious
about being black
as I am serious
about you understanding How black I am
How black we are
so black that we all came from Africa
So black that racism ceases to exist
apologizes and commits genocide on itself
instead of everyone else
whiteness reverses itself back to ethnicities
admits it is a dissociative order
to its judicial branch
So black that natives re-overpopulate
so black that whiteness becomes a memory
distant even to the young
so black that humans matter again
human lives matter
is like black lives matter
until this matters
deconstruction of whiteness
breakdown of the philosophies
that went into the business
of skin color based slavery
deconstructing imperial serial killing
so black that anyone can find out the truth
anytime anywhere
nothing to hide except humanity
