We’re the milk-bone
of the dog of oppression
that’s feeding on us…
Ancestors left us
a keloid shielding navel
to resist the bite…
Let’s spit out the taste
of the oppressive dog bite
and it’s bitter guile:-
We’ve survived the snake
of the Garden of Eden—
Damn this lady…dog…
Enticed, let us not
ever swallow the poison
to die…than live free…
Let’s be as fierce fleas
stinging away injustice;
liberty savored:-
