POEMS FROM DEADLY ENDING SEASON
Graveyard Urbanity! Deathtrap Psychology!
enforced and re-enforced on we
Governments strategic weapons
creating Black Ghettos
Inner City Slums and Unemployment
To use the now overused labels on us/on we
"Black Ethnic Minority?"
for the world to see our tragedy
starving begging faces
bawling for help on television screens
in Europe and The Americas
in the land of our past and present oppressors
with hypocrite presidents and prime ministers
abusing power in disguise
"Oh we care for the Blacks" they say
but a wen since we tun minority
sons and daughters of Afrikan descent
a wen a wen since we are not majority
Afrikans uprooted from homeland
that now we are Blacks instead of Afrikans
mi sey a wen since we tun minority
living in concrete shacks in rundown areas
a wen since we become the victims of perpetual sabotage
living a no good life in our urban inner city ghettos
a wen since the Afrikans abroad change race that we can now
be called Black Ethnic Minority in dreadful poverty
inhumanity in Britain
in rundown Britain in America
in money bloated America
in the Caribbean
in the tourist resort Caribbean
a wen since we tun minority dis new phrasing
Black Ethnic Minority a wen! a wen!
it must be a plan well planned
to pump fear in us that if they gang
up on us we must run in hole and bawl
"Outnumbered! Outnumbered!
Surrender! Surrender!"
in hopelessness and despair
in fear fear fear but we are not deceived
not! deceived 'bout dem minority
'bout dem minority
when it's a Black Afrikan Majority
chanting
and fighting
to be free.
