RACISM
BY: Sulyman Adam Opeyemi (The TalkingPen)
Difference in melanin and culture and heritage Difference in economy and political power defines superiority We’re humanity different races from a father Murky cloud as canopied human’s brain To define superiority amongst themselves Does God have inferior material to create anyone? For economically they’re powerful Politically they controlled the world They looked down on their lower counterparts They subjected them to vicious dealing from onset Exploit them of their resource and still gagged them from speaking From this they grew to become masters, ain’t they thieves? They’ve embedded in their generation blood The trait of feeling superior For they think black should be rule over They said blacks quintessential to apes and bulls For that, presiding over them is a must But they forget many blacks brain have been stole by them to developed them Their memory lines are ephemeral to remember That the exploitation of blacks has driven them up there That blacks are sources of their greatness The home of modern democracy Where they still gagged and censor saying of some races Are they truthfully what they called themselves? A ride back home Ain’t we worth what we’re subjected to? Perhaps, we’re portrayed to them like that Bless we’re in our fatherland With the required perquisite to become successful But unfortunately for blacks, leaders aren’t their luck Perhaps, if we grow economically And politically we stand out among the world Mayhaps we may spare off these ruthless killings Mayhaps we’d be respected around the globe Perhaps our glory can be recovered Maybe if we do off been ‘beggarly’ to them Maybe if we develop our countries without their intervention Perhaps our dignity will be restore Maybe we won’t be mortify again, if begin to change from home © The TalkingPen 29-May-2020 |
