it's not so much, a point of being
that demands a need for the other's
sight...
           rather:
     a "paradox" to mind:
   it's worth pretending to be unseen...
        a carpenter can: be,
    a roofer can be...
              the rest results
in a: taming of a game that provokes
a society to exist...
          see, with my neigbour buck,
who is raised by a single mother
who's father left him in nearing
a regression toward infancy?
               i "have" to "pretend"
to "be" invisible...
                 existentialism?
            something that's overtly-nuanced...
"air" quoting... pontius pilate
style of: passing on the "blame"...
   or just gagging for diacritical
markers...
                    having started drinking
mid-day... really has a
bewildering effect on having
to adjust to the rigour of: a day...
         thankfully there's the
intermediate of petting cats...
               it's almost worth being
reminded of: herbie hancock?
   no, no?
               wait, it'll come to me...
  burt ******* reynolds...
              MOP R U with that
September broom...
                     how many times i've had
to resort to be "deemed": unseen...
                   it's what horror movies
are made from...
             the giggling is great but
the giggling aside...
               said a sloth to a Dicken's novel...
oh ****, that made a hell load of sense:
he cursed and also made it
into a correct spelling category...
         must be a skiing type.
          i eat a ******* boiled egg
a radish, and some ultra-braun-brot
for breakfast, does that constitute
me being worth an abba biography?
you better be squeezing m'ah lemons
         if y'ah gonna ask that
                     ******* question.
IT IS GOOD TO BE ROYAL
BUT TEACH THE ROYAL
LOYALTY FIRST THEN YOU'LL
MAKE A PERFECT & TRUE
KINGDOM WITHOUT DEFECT

A WORD IS ENOUGH FOR THE WISE
BUT FOOLS DESIRE SIGNS & WONDER
TO BELIEVE.


I spake of africa & her pain
let me be blunt & plain
I spake of the beginning
& the end of ages,

From ships that sailed
from distant places
yes, old pirate robbed I,
I was sold too marchant ships
minute after I was captured,

From the primitive stage
to civilize slave,
oh, what a bottomless pit.

Hell is the bitter consequence
Of seduction & lust
turning even luster gold
into mud,
and it is the meal I fed,

Remember the dust represents origin
yes, I have returned from my roots
speaking of the serpent & the child
I got bruises on my feet
but I did crushed it's head finally.

Of what use is a charmer
if you're already beaten
so carefully listen to my advise.

Narrow is the path of life
few they be,
that purchase education
& love they neigbour,

Broad is the path to death
many they be that lead
life of no value and abuse living.

Few words to say,
each alphabet
holds a thousand meaning
and silence is eternal,
what can time really heal
If stiches are left unattended too.

Be wise and see
don't be wise and remain blinded.

Initiated by the cruel humanity
Judging your neigbour by the race
Racism ended sociability
Which was caused by the wicked face

You little child of today shall not be blamed
For you have only followed the ways you assimilated
You were pure when you were created
Humanity destroyed your purity
For you knew nothing of the world

Racism shall die
If only the world could reunite
No one will cry
Unity will be our name
And we shall be one

Black or white?
It doesn't matter
Our features are the same
Because of the difference of colour
Hatred is shown in the world

Imagine a world full of only one colour
That will be boring
You won't explore any culture

It's time to show love and care
For the end is near.
This is about the racism that is being shown in the world daily.

— The End —
