#appropriation
Dedication to faith, Hug my rosary. Incense burns whilst you ********** You said I was devotary. Worship in the bathroom, Pervert in the mind. We exist in this vacuum, The faithful lead the blind. You believe in the sacrament- sacrificed, Transparent with your intentions. Speak your mind, you’ve patronized- an acolyte, Your word is divine intervention. Practice Ramadan, you bake baklava, Exile my words and make me believe. You do in in His Name- Allah, It’s all a persona, you deceive. Dedication to faith, Hug your rosary. Now I mastuterbate, And bruise your ovaries. Wake up exposed, You’re already on me. So eager to pose, Play me, marquee. Feel guilt, you’ve done it yourself, Broken the bones of Sainthood. Leave alone- you’re too compelled, By the force of the Brotherhood. Walk beside the force of God, You couldn’t keep your Father. Dye it blonde, Shield your eyes from the honor. Disruption of faith, You throw my rosary. I lay next to you while you ********** Who said I was devotary?

Ramadan
I don't mind when white people wear cat ears. seifuku. kimono. kanji slapped on shirts. (even if they don't know what it means) Culture can be an aesthetic. Just as long as they appreciate it, We're friends.

Cultural Appreciation
It is not wrong to be white and to have dreadlocks Though, you may look like a pleb but you offend me not Nor would it offend a black rastafarian man of a temperate manner I don't know any women with white skin and straight hair that get offended by afro-caribbean women wearing a straight weave You're all just too soft now, you're all just pet peaves Stop getting offended on behalf of other people that don't even take offence Excuse me, whilst I build a fence around myself hombre Not to keep me here but to keep you at bay Cultural appropriation doesn't exist Cultural misappropriation doesn't exist You're all just champagne socialists You should get over it Yes, you mate The one that thinks he's above everyone and must decide what is politically correct and whose life matters In the end all this is is a series of cultural exchanges and we're all wading through **** Face it.

Cultural Triggering
I am a person of colour Whose simple presence can cause outrage they use their tongues as swords and slay me with slurs Whilst there are others who pretend to be my ally but I can see their disgust in their eyes their uneasiness in their smile I am a person of colour Whose beautiful traditional garments are cherry-picked and woven into a disgusting replica brandished on “Designer labels” and mocked as exotic I am a person of colour Whose skin is secretly envied by them they exhaust their expenses on tanning salons and “bronzing” creams Yet simultaneously they spit on my “darkness” and promote their products with the so-called beauty of “lightness” I am a person of colour I shall not hide my anger at their ignorance I shall wear my skin with pride Because being a person of colour No matter what I do or how I conform They will never be satisfied
