.               white priv.
  yeah...
how does that one
work when
i'm a... ******* ******
living among
the anglo-house-of-ßaß
people?

i keep forgetting...
    it never ends up sticking...
having to learn
a post-colonial
mentality
of dominance...

         lost, ageless baron...
an imploded economy,
an experiment...
FAIL...
             did i like
the move?
                  i just don't
like it when
i'm made into a curiosity
of whether or not
i guarantee
using this language:
to conform to a decency...

i can't tap into
the recess of "blackness"
i'm a minority white
among whites
with...
what seems to appear
as...
the minorities of
ethnic difference
making, real world,
differences!

       but i'm white,
so that... doesn't technically
count...
  what is a ******
among the white brits?
reason so hold a
brexit referendum...

welcome...
   for making the point...
hover...
like a blip,
over the voting
public...
             the nearby pleb...
well...
if we're all going to
bother the dead
and borrow from the past...

Polish colonial expanse?
ask the Ukranians...
Zimbabwe?
                 not so much...

i just forget to keep up
with the post-colonial
mea culpa narrative...
        cheap arguments:
i am, assured,
that i make them...

but...
  i am white,
and do not come
from a people
who have a colonial past...
so... where does this
leave me?
   in... limbo!
   coconuts for drum
kits kind of limbo...

and so much for
identity politics...
  ja, mówię tym 'zorem,
a co ty, co ja,
co ta... kurwa flegm
flondra
                     tematu?!


yeah... the missing
apostrophe prefix notification
is alligned with a ję'...

i have never found
as much syllable clarity
than i have found in
this ****** tongue...

              clarity dictum...
which doesn't pardon
me from claiming
any "white privilege"...
  ingrained...
       differences
in language...
which is... what the irish
would become under
subordinate rule...

tender meat of
the cow-tongue...
in a broth...
with Silesian potato nuggets...
ję' ozór:
             (it eats
                  beef tongue)

no...
not 'zyk...
      język...
    jęzor...
                 there is a set
of words for the corresponding
anatomy of the differece
between man, being closely
associated to his similarity
in the basin of animal...

język: human...
jęzor: animal...             (tongue)

                 buzia: human...
          pysk: animal...                   (mouth)

gender-neutral
pronouns...
      already 'ere...
             you, i,
                  weren't all pronouns
gender-neutral
to begin with, beside he and she?
oh, **** me,
looks like ha-shem is
making a comeback
into the language
of the european peoples...

i succumbed to investigating
the hebrew god,
because all the gods
of the europeans seem
to have...
                   been... "lost"...

ję ozór: he eats cow-tongue...
  a painting,
captured significance
of an act... ję:
"it"'s eating a beef tongue...

i'm not even minding
competing...
hard to compete
via differences...
when...
you're "different" outside
the most prosthetic
middle-class joke
of the ****** builders...

      ****** me...
                poe-on-a-leash...
my rough tongue
acribed itself
to incubating rabies...

so...
      this kulturkrieg?
           i thought the past
was important?
but...
              i don't come from
a source of people,
who were able
to experience a colonial past?
so does that mean
i have to be indoctrinated
into a de-colonialization
psychology experiment?
