Josephine DixonBanks Poems

The only reason you’re allowed some power
The hidden agenda knows you will shower
Your own people at some hour
With hatred and disrespect while you cower
...

Desiring to posses and not to be a possession
What is this fervor, what is this obsession
I’m not an object of your affection
A mere image of your reflection
...

Beautification of the city
Brand new image, what a pity

The outward appearance is in bloom
...

Gerrymandering and slandering the truth
Destruction of The Self in it’s youth
Disagree with misinformation, demand authentic proof
Exercising you universal right is being uncouth
...

Listen, sweet pet
You are shackled with regret
A past love binds you tenaciously
While you taste old memories voraciously
...

Listen, sweet pet
The reason you are finding it hard
To get over a past love
Is because you still want it
...

I was never a child, forced to walk a mile in adult shoes
Found out ain’t no true gospel, just true blues

Had the right to discover the innate lover of my soul
...

Somebody told you-you were a male and female
Stole your soul-the wholly grail
Totally blind but can’t read braile
Empty inside like a bottomless dale
...

Build beach front property in the path of the ocean
Land developers had no inkling or notion
Deterioration of land
Experts amazed but don’t understand
...

The act of Good-Will is a cover to kill
Butcher the rain forest and Mother Nature at will
Honorable ulterior motive is the motif
The hidden agenda of a covert thief
...
