You prevent me moving on
You limit my horizons
You cheapen my achievements
And you delete me based on age

You are the judge and powerbroker
Little that qualifies you for this
And your prejudices and abilities gap
Run riot over my ambition

When you are from within
And not an agent for
My background scares you
And threatens your own standing

No perfect world
No meritocracy
No boat rockers
Just the usual suspects

What black man fears a white man?
Seem to be a different outlook in the present times.
I just want to know?
What black man fears a white man?

Even the hate and so-called fear the white man pushes.
Seems to be in groups.
None brave to stand alone.
Just maybe they got the picture of fear totally wrong.

We know they never reported a black flight?
But have heard of white flight.
Running from the situations they created.

Laws, they manipulate to stay ahead.
****, competition intimidates them.

Then so did a slave.
And they barely controlled anything but threaten by the powerbroker's guns.

White fear is a reality check.
Don't keep pushing hatred that you can't cash.
Because eventually, the message of rage will come back.

From the real man that you fear.
Readers, this is simply a poetic commentary.
