Of Storm Keepers & Shop Keepers

CATEGORY

This is A Mirror's Call (America)

Hidden truths on restroom walls

Pondering the present enthralls

Taking time to decipher a his-story

While remembering not to stall on delivery

 

Far cries of 1st world development, wishes derived

Fleeing persecution, or difference in convictions

Your existence is cherished most in your child's eye

So you pack your fung shui, to America's entry waves

Parlaying promises of government cheese for emerging markets

So you too can feed your family while sponsoring democracy

Better 2b a nuclear physicist from dictator loving dichotomy

European dreaming of Rasputin aristocracy in red, white, blue

 

Land of the free in setting up shop on corners hoping to franchise

Chased from countries to cities offering exploitation because they is hiring

Rent is too high, so you work three jobs, afterall existence is survival

So long as you fit in when interviewed and profiled by “the algorhythms”

You are allowed 2b a part of the system, whether lost or depending....

Bygones are not fore gone conclusions, unless you accept no collusion

If so, then how possibly would you know of African diaspora/Maafa outcomes

All you know is that your boot straps came laced, so you walk all over them

Berating dissent and convincing constituents that only some are fit to rule

 

Tis true consumers keep consuming this gross national products of inequality

So to help the economy I must keep buying from the same Shop Keepers

However, within the bowels of my-story day will come, for I am a Storm Keeper

The tempest is just off the horizon, as the story goes it all starts in the temple...
