"profiling" poems
From the cultured hood of Beverly Hills Young rich white kid rapping Blonde hair perfectly combed and trimmed Blue eyes shaded from California sun Spitting ghetto slang about unfair pain, Affirmative action, cultural injustices Daddy’s allowance, racial profiling Pimp[le] mobile and spinning rims Gold plated teeth over pearly whites Slinging 401k’s and time shares Baggy pants sagging down past his *** Tugging at his crotch His hand permanently attached To his little white flaccid **** Trying to keep from tripping While he’s running from the police Wanted for questioning On insider trading And insurance scams

Beverly Hills Gangster
When you know who you are and find out who you are not, how can you bother sleeping at night? When it holds us down and it’s done dreaming of the enslavement of billions because it has come to life inside our minds. The days’ endings are coming and seem worse with each passing slide of childhood memories and tearful age. Who you know is so tired. Each and every of the billions’ voices is stifled. “I know my heart and I love my family. They give me joy though I watch them suffer every day. Of racial profiling, religious hate and sexism. I pray the young will be spared my fate. So I pretend not to see and enjoy all my moments with them because all I can clutch, keep my control of is now, is this very moment. Now is all I can see. No influence on my future comes from me.” © October 27th, 2013

One mother's song
You must never **** the spiders, While, they are woven their poems into the likeness of thunder? Kidnapped the poets, instead of the poems Therefore, I asked of you to stop all useless riots On poetry, read them, embrace them, and Learn from them: poetry is disciplined And disciplined is the most misunderstanding word In the dictionary: but somehow it is said that riots is the language of the unheard: we must never embrace racial riots, or racial profiling: reach out to racial equity stop allowing the messages of hate to go viral plants row of trees, in the name of love, I recently came across, ants yes, I said ants When army ants need to cross a large gap, they simply build a bridge - with their own bodies. Linking together, the ants can move their living bridge from its original point, allowing them to cross gaps and create shortcuts across rainforests in Central and South America. I recently saw human fighting each other, I recently read somewhere Where children were locked away in cages , McALLEN, Texas (AP) — inside an old warehouse in South Texas, hundreds of immigrant children wait in a series of cages created by metal fencing. One cage had 20 children inside. Scattered about are bottles of water, bags of chips and large foil sheets intended to serve as blankets. We must never **** the spiders, While, there are woven their poems into the likeness of thunder..

You Must Never Killed The Spiders
There’s a lot to be said for this place. A near-perfect pitch for diversity, Diversity: a neurolinguistic term; A quaint way to say: miscegenation. No, just kidding; I meant the melting *** A fine blend of Anglo, Hispanic & Indian blood— That’s Pueblo & Plains Indian blood-- Not that **** masala, chapati & dal Indian blood. My apologies to "Who's the White Guy?" Bobby Jindal. New Mexico: “The Land of Enchantment.” Where 310 sunny days per annum, Are like money in the bank, earning Double-plus compound interest for those Suffering with seasonal affective disorders. A land of sunshine without the orange juice, But substitute chili, red or green? An equitable offset to be sure. 310 days of sunshine: Even the white people are brown here. Which does a lot for my self-esteem. Back east—New York, Chicago & Philadelphia e.g.— People that look like me, i.e., People with dark brown hair, eyes and skin, Get stopped/ass-cheek spread/& frisked, routinely. Stop & Frisk: NYPD’s spectator sport for decades. Stop & Frisk: Mayor Bloomberg-defended Crime-stopping Godsend, Getting guns off the streets. Getting homicides down. Everything’s cool until some slick race baiter, Starts yelling: RACIAL PROFILING. Forget for a moment that people that look like me, People like me with dark hair, eyes & skin, Commit 78% of the crime in most cities. “It’s not racially driven profiling,” Said Newark’s police director recently Referring to stops carried out by his officers. “IT’S CRIME-DRIVEN PROFILING!” But, again, political-correctness trumps common sense: August 2013: Judge Rules NYPD Stop-and-Frisk Unconstitutional. Well I’ll be a monkey’s *** ****** I moved to New Mexico to blend in. My complexion a shoe-in for The Witness Protection Program or Any other public or private, Domestic or international rendition site. But I digress. New Mexico: no passport necessary, Babaloo! New Mexico: be you white or black, Hispanic or Indian, Or even Roswell extraterrestrial, The cops here will beat the **** out of you. Or shoot you dead, Kemosabe.

He was taken into custody on Friday After he got off a bus in Marseille That had come from Amsterdam By way of Brussels, According to police. The manhunt began After he opened fire At the Jewish Museum In the center of Brussels, Killing at least 3 people, Obviously: an anti-Semitic attack. He was taken into custody “As soon as he set foot in France,” According to François Hollande, Congratulating himself For an efficient round up of The usual suspects, all Jihadi Round trippers from Syria. He was taken into custody in a mere 6 days-- A magnifique display of French efficiency, A sublime achievement by Our furry friends in Police-Protective Services. The swarthy perp was carrying a Kalashnikov-- That’s AK-47 for you NRA gun nuts-- A handgun, ammunition, a baseball cap, A small video recording device, and a Copy of The Koran, All items matching Descriptions of the gunman, And, even if not, a known-terrorist Named Mahdi bin Laden, Carrying an assault rifle Would have been enough To fit the profile, Justify the profiling, Sufficient to stop anyone Passing through Customs, Except, of course The French Corps Diplomatique, Wreaking most of the havoc in the EU these days. There was once a time when any Thom, Dieter or Heine Could get outta town on a ratline, Blessed by the Pope, Assisted by the OSS. A white linen suit and a Panama hat: Was all it took any Schutzstaffel To pull off another Argentine makeover, Melt into the landscape, Speaking Spanish with a thick German brogue. It’s nice to know Jew persecution is criminal, Socially frowned on these days.

Let us mine into the depths of Shakhty, and scorn the Western state of communist superintendence. We are embroiled in a political and industrial conglomerate where cold wars lay the foundations of unstoppable monstrosities. Converse with Andrei Romanovich Chikatilo, as you splatter milk across the surface of your psychological cereal, and raise questions around the episodic nature of criminal profiling. I love the olfactory beauty of a railway station, whose stench is dissimilar to the pastures of raunchy and deadly opportunities which result in Rostov butchery. Nevertheless, it is rooted in crop failure and the enforced collectivization of agriculture.

Vicarious Traumatisation
Tapping relentlessly on the warm metal table-top I wait. I watch my watch to time the waitress. I hate this. No more to do than to classify humans; ''advanced'' mammal zoo. Specimen one: Green-Eyed Duckling. Looking up at her mother goose you can see she doesn't seem to be finding a mirror. If you were to ask me; no difference. Imperfect reflection. Best not tell her though. Specimen two: Naive Kitten. Instantly smitten, with just a little heavy petting never second guessing a seemingly simple relationship. Take. Fake. Take some more. Once it gets real, its too close to home. Specimens three and four: Sympathy for the Mantis. There's simply no way he can escape. It's not in his nature raised to obey. She, can't see herself in the mother-in-law it would shatter her control complex. Her whole context. Destined to be consumed, he bows his head. Specimen five: The Lioness. She lays like an aggressive doormat don't get too close, she might bite. Or worse she might claw the ''not'' off the welcome mat let you in and then play victim. Specimen six: The Dreaming Sloth. Floating on a magic carpet; going with the breeze distinct aroma. Extinct diplomas. Wasted. Talents wasted in two relaxed limbs halfway through life, waiting for it to begin. "Your coffee sir" she smiles. A new profile; specimen seven classified unknown.

The struggle is real
Some people endeavor to portray a persona. Some people perpetuate the beliefs of their parents. Some people pretend to be somebody they've seen on TV. Some people have trouble accepting that they're actually existing. Some people perceive themselves as being unlike anyone else. Some people have an aversion to personality profiling. Some people just can't help themselves. Some people feel a need to place everyone they've ever known into categories.

Tiger Got to Hunt, Bird Got to Fly; Man Got to Sit and Wonder "Why, Why, Why?"
It's funny the things that catch our eye. My boarding pass and passport are over checked Student ID, Admission letter four years old, Father's death certificate, My marriage certificate, Endless documents, To prove I'm not a threat. He  waltzes through without a blink. No boarding pass checked, No passport in hand, No red flags raised. I'm sure it's illegal, But they don't ask Or maybe they won't. I'm the one they check, The one they search. 3 hours. Are these your suitcases? Unpack the suitcase who packed the suitcase? Each item scanned Where was the suitcase after it was packed? swab, wait, second swab, wait again. third swab, That had better be for good luck. (more attention than the blarney stone) Did anyone give you any gifts to bring? Repack, Rush through check-in. Second security check, Go to line 3. Unpack hand luggage, Laptop, tablet, phone, chargers, data cables Scanned individually, Take off shoes, Walk through metal detector, Three swabs more for good measure, Repack, Rush to gate Already boarding Finally in my seat. He takes 15 minutes. It's funny how his time 8-tuples, When we travel together. I may be his ben zug, I may speak their language without the dreaded Mivtah*, but I still don't belong. It's funny the things that catch our eye.

Profiling 101(First draft)
Profiling ( A Cops View) Profiling, it can save a life Now Im not saying its always right But we see something thats out of place And we're supposed to look the other way Dont judge a person by there looks What they drive or who there with No matter what the time of day We cannot question what they say Your mind tells you there's something wrong That this person does not belong Still im not allowed to question them About where they're going or where they've been But commit a crime or someone dies Then the whole community they question why For the Officers should have known That guy, that car, they don't belong We cant profile all by itself The law requires we have something else It is a tool that we can choose But not the only tool to use Profiling, it can save a life Now I'm not saying it's always right No one tool should be abused But if it saves a life,..... ill profile you Carl Joseph Roberts

Profiling ( A Cops View)
Most people lost in trance, No moral No virtue, none taking stance, Corporations, profiling the masses for profit, Wisdom, a lost art, never a conversation topic, Most people lost in trance, Thinking, intellect seems active... but at glance, The masses follow but a single or many devils dance, Compassion forbidden, ignorance in forever expanse. Wickedness spreading even in a happy song, The Path of Ancients, forgotten, what has gone wrong? Spirituality always seen as an unscientific farce, A pure state of consciousness, truly: a lost Art. As a the masses defile, few seek purity, All with masks on, fearing true reality, Fools fooling fools, a vicious cycle, Kings and pawns, dreaming of power and titles. Lost in trance, for others amusement, Greed seekers doing even the devil's recruitment, Pollutants in all, mind, heart and body, Lost in trance, devoid of potentiality. A few fools, feeding on ignorance for money, Truly, lost in trance, a lost humanity.

Lost in trance
They fear for their children, Their things when our black men come near. But do they forget that it was the pale faces who were the cruel ones? They shipped and trapped our brown for sugar, molasses... For things. They inspected Destructed Degraded Detained Stripped naked our black men for money. They stole much more than our black men today. Beat, broke, and chained our black men Only to incriminate the black body Only to create fear of skin that has been kissed by something not man made. So forgive me if I say **** you" to the police in their attempts at racial profiling rationalizations. Have you no education? Have you no intellect? Have you forgotten OUR history? You cannot cancel violence by enacting violence. You cannot stop a cycle that you have began if you cannot even look at yourself . LOOK AT YOURSELF. It must be hard being so **** stupid. Being so detached And having the good graces to ignore and not to teach OUR history. The black body isn't what you should lock your doors from at night. Are you scared you wont be able to see it? Are you? It is the ignorance of our society of the simple fact That what starts here Ends here. And we are doomed to continue This cycle of shedding the blood of each other If you refuse to educate on where the violence                                                         the cruelty                                                         the ownership                                                         the belittling                                                         of the human body began.

splurge on the urge to serve well colored desserts binge with no purge. chomp away conversation and feel it where it hurts you are more abundant, than all the currency you could ever carry in your pocket or purse yet one of those black holes carries anxiety, profiling, while fear lurks For many moons, mirrors were dispersed to the cursed, Weeping and wallowing in whispering whirlwinds of woeful words unheard - preventing the never-ending spreading by attempting image cementing, projecting lists with thoughtless flaws causing immediate rejection with time the mind played a game to cage you in it's name, draining your pay, benefits, and full pension releasing the need to sow the seed for an introspective gaze you hold the key to breathe through the chains of that imaginatory detention space inhale exhale Suddenly walls lift from the maze you assumed was fatal race Your heart glows Knowing you're on the path you were hinted at but never faced To forever flow forward with a loving third eye seeing absolute grace, emitting energy in everyone, thing, mirror, and place immediate influx of infectious bliss-infusing airwaves vibrate to the tune  of soul affection~ to realize inbetween scenes you appreciate the mystery, part of a pinpoint plan, puzzle piecing the learned ability to see -perfection~ It's you.

Home of the free and land of the brave The home I reside in isn't free and with all these deaths it should've been called land of the grave So, why should I fear death? Even when I go about things the right way and subtract bad decisions death will always be left Keep your eyes peeled and light on your heel These bullets are like my words, not meant for a specific person can be for anyone to feel And I'm not trying to disrespect the people that protest But you'll never see me protest anything because everyday there's a new thing to protest Dead people found in freezers, protest Racial profiling, protest Immigration laws, protest And while we're talking about immigration, I've seen more marriages at the courthouse than ever I'm starting to think nursing isn't where the money and success is at and officiating marriages be my new focus Hurricanes came with pain and aim to level everything so nothing be the same But if you want my opinion, disasters like these give cities new reason to rebuild bigger and better Rebuild and reevaluate financial importance Let's try building more homes and ignore a need for a fence Many people might call this talent but I'm just speaking facts During the daytime I'm just a regular college student trying to find my way in life But at night I'm the dark knight trying to make my city a better place with words instead of bats

Land Of The Grave
Deep empathy; a curse. People watching brings down tears. Walking miles in someone else's shoes; simply by profiling. Judgemental, fantasizing about living their life. Heart bleeds from the weight of grief. Distaste of socialization. Draining, devastating, a slipping ego trip. Sickly, becoming after too much interaction. Though, yearning to be praised "unique." Batteries recharge; dark, alone. Introverted thinking ,extraverted feeling Intuition guiding eyes; inspiring yet convincing. Perfectionist, worst of traits. Vividly; descending into madness. Dehydrated imagination, feeling ill. Connecting dots, many abstractions. Passionate, altruistic, advocate. Seeking deep down; fetching truth. Eccentric mystic, entirely misunderstood. Devoted empathy; punished internally.

Hidden, Away
"In Modern Drama we turn a critical eye into the conditions of real life and morality." --- Arlen Rambush Modern Drama 101 Her life had become an Ibsen scenario, cloaked, as it was, in furtive AOL chat rooms, seeking the romance no longer orbed in marriage, rather to be panned from the internet wellspring. It wasn't so much inconstancy, as it was whimsy; more a channeling of Deneuve, than profiling Gabler. And she found they flocked to her, pigeons to be shooed away, should they get too close. Soul of the house, everything to husband and family, yet, it was in cyber tryst where she flourished, that informed the powerful intellect at intervals with mother and a carte blanche ingénue. It's possible she sought to reform them, tear them down --- or no --- it was conquest. It was not she that needed men, it was she that absorbed them in hedonistic pleasure.

systematic injustice personified defended by Constitutional underpinnings a flag of hate, slavery, and intolerance waves in the warm July breeze as a debate rages over the ideas of heritage versus symbolism becoming the latest social conversation – systematizing racial profiling for Aryan officers lost in the code of silence giving the badge both a blue and black image of bruised pride the pride of a nation – poor pigment-ally challenged youth bound to suffer indignity of an atrocious nature at the hands of your teachers, preachers, authority figures, and family members so culturally ******** that they cannot see themselves propagating their own despair – this nation of victim blamers hates its own multi-ethnic skin cannot look into the proverbial mirror without shuddering at the view in one thousand years when all humanity is a nice, even, shade of brown what will we hate about each other then? –

That Sad Old Dumpster
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, Seeing chalked outlines of brothers, I haven’t met, Cause the cops been harassing and profiling so long, People become desensitized, pretending nothings wrong. Seeing so many innocent children that didn’t deserve it, Have a hoodie in the store, you assume it’s a burglar, You better watch your chatter, otherwise the gun gonna clatter. Becoming just another body bag for another mother. And the news may report it, But the next day it won’t matter. I really hate to alarm, but I’m fed up, Some think it’s silly, saying **** it up. The same fools that never experienced harm. Assuming based on colour, that I must be armed. So, they pull up on me like I’m a terrorist, Which is pretty ******* racist, No matter what way you measure it! Having a knee on a neck, Like they need a prayer addressed. Yet they call my people violent. Very ironic? Isn’t it? Been spending most our lives, Living in a colonist paradise, Could hang as much ***** as you like, Living in a colonist paradise. We keep spending most our lives living in a colonist paradise, Have many have to be sacrificed till we question this colonial paradise? Look at the situation they got us facing, We can’t live a normal life, we was taken from our land. So, now we got to conform to new rules G, Becoming puppets for the bourgeoisie. I’m an educated savage with justice on my mind, Got my Diploma in my hand and pride in my eyes, I’m a rez’d out desperado, Cree that’s muy guapo. And my patience is worn, so don’t provoke my fuego! Fool, death ain’t nothing but are martyrdom away, Just one spark away, From lighting the fuse, That will blow away. The old narrow minded and rotten society. Every child matters, It’s pretty sad, that I even have to say that homie. Been spending most our lives living in a colonist paradise, Could slaughter as much children as you like, As long as you say you’re doing it for your Christ. We keep spending most our lives living in a colonist paradise, Have many have to be sacrificed till we question this colonial paradise? Power and the money, money and the power. Promise after promise, liar after liar. Everybody breathing, but half of them ain’t living. It’s going on in our community, but nobody looking. They say I gotta get over it, but nobody here see’s the trauma from it! If they can’t understand it, how can reconciliation come out of it? I guess they can't, I guess they won't I guess they frontin', that's why I know my life is out of luck, fool! Been spending most our lives living in a colonist paradise, Could imprison as many asians as you like. Living in a colonist paradise. We keep spending most our lives living in a colonist paradise, Have many have to be sacrificed till we question this colonial paradise?

Sheriff Joe Arpaio was convicted by the court for picking on the immigrants of the Latino sort. Relied on racial profiling and on intimidation; A redneck cop who'd love to build a bigoted white nation. Of course, this man loves Donald Trump and though he is a crook, Trump has come through and pardoned him and got him off the hook. So ***** the courts and rule of law that's there to thwart each hater; This "law and order" president's a despot and dictator. So if you are an alt-right racist, it's your lucky day! El Presidente Trump makes rights and justice go away.

CONFIRMATION
We slip across the border, anonymous and unnoticed, just another tin can of rank sardines. The border patrol paid us little mind. Der Bünden Europa is not like America. This is the land where borders still exist merely on the map. An abstraction. An abstraction, rightly belonging in the realm of the abstract. No all out profiling, no pandering or demeaning behaviour, just a slip. A slip, a slip, the thin veneer, that we all cross. Who could tell? I put my head through the window, and with the punch of one strong breeze passing, we rage full on into Deutschland.

I’m coming out my coma like a Russian spy sleeper, and I be assassinating these ******* while wearing some fuzzy slippers. I’m a boss, I’m a goat, and if you got a problem with it, imma put my foot down your throat. Racial profiling defined me, stereotypes and statistics shunned me. **** my progress before I even start, I can’t even enjoy myself on a sunny day in the park. All because I hit that racial profiling mark, for the white man only see’s me as a pitbull and aren’t willing to hear me talk, for all they hear is a threatening bark. Man that’s ruff! Better Put em in cuffs! Better yet put him down before he hurts someone, so I have no choice but to take out my guns. Grew up with a disadvantage, grew up with traditional racist cultural norms that left me to fend for myself in this garbage. Plus drugs be flowing through my neighbour hood, and that’s the only way you make money and afford school and food.   So to survive I Gotta do what I gotta do, so why judge me ***** because if you were in my position what would you do? When you haven’t got a chance to prove yourself a winner for capitalism already has decided you to be a loser. No safety net, nor is there a invisible hand to get ya out of debt. Gotta fend for yourself in this world full of hyenas, and if there is a God out there why isn’t he defending us? Hook: Internalized designs, Set up the designs that confine, That blind us from seeing inside. Can’t sleep when Im under the microscope. Can’t speak when people in power have taken away my throat. Verse 2: With no one wanting to see things from my lens. From my scope. When no one wants to hear what I can lend to make amends. As they just think I’m on dope. But This is just the inter-scope of an insomniac. The reason I can’t sleep. The reason I’m deemed a freak. The reason there’s a divide. The reason why many commit suicide. Because what’s the point of living, If no one’s willing to listen to your side. When no one is willing to acknowledge their privilege. When it doesn’t matter if your indigenous and proud when society still sees you as a savage? When your given a one way ticket to prison. When in all honesty where else is there to go? With most our language and culture lost and land stolen. Government has taken away everything precious from us like golem. And totem pole effects leaves us internally broken. With everyone believing themselves to be the victim. And never apart of what lead to the problem. Hook: Internalized designs, Set up the designs that confine, That blind us from seeing inside.
