Ain’t it enough i’m American?
No siree, I can see
you are up to no good
your race,
your colour-
you are too much melanin
And I-
I’m too less human.
you do not point at me,
you do not raise your eyes to me.
Beneath me.
Justice has turned back
Truth has fallen in the streets
Injustice threatening Justice
But
Watch, the past, present and future collide,
Watch,
The smoke billows,
Up and down,
Side to side
Untying, uniting
Unrelenting.
Watch,
Watch your back.
