ripped from mother’s bleeding womb
shackled and shutdown
in the belly bowels of stinking slave ships
shiny black keloid bodies
on blood stained auction blocks
sold to the highest paying bigot
locking you down in mired slavery
through years of massive oppression
you have survived and are still alive
arising above a shutdown mentality
that’s been an everlasting scourge
pity the suffered 800,000 of today
praised for temporally surviving
a political chastising nightmare
that over 800 million of your offspring
have here survived from time immemorial:
today my old ride shutdown on poor me
and after analyzing the situation
got out and continue on o my destination…
