SEMBLANCE
An abundance of unforeseen good and evil...
I witness hatred and ignorance occupy minds
Semblance created to facilitate lies
Our brothers and sisters have been alienated and died
Though radiating in powerful potential
Others degrade, striving to terminate the culture
Nothing short of despisement
Choices built on a foundation of fear as opposed to optimism
Carrying the complexity of a burden bestowed upon me
Little justification of false accusations
Then transcending into admiration subsequently relocated of displacement
Viewed as naturally disobedient, from the adversary turned ally
This very presence has disturbed a twisted peace, Undoubtedly a non sequitur
Racism, Eracism vacillating
Feet no longer held above the fire, yet the burns and scars still inspire
Infinitesimal luminescence attempting to pierce through darkness
A revolution slowly beginning to commence
Examined from the face up; skin up
Misguided influence penetrating young morsel minds
Desecrating the image of innocent ebony beings
Genocism and nicknames distorting God's children's frames
Uttermost loathing in the absence of warrant
The system is quite amusing when dissected for viewing
To imitate would be suicide, but to conform and abide would be silly
right?
The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law
No longer chained up now, FREE, universal gratuity to a Eagle
These very words might appear as fecal
Nonetheless, I pray that one day there will never be a sequel
And others shall not shelter their eyes but, see as we do...
