Racism Is Old Business In America Poem by Hebert Logerie

Blacks have been killed for centuries
By racist nincompoops. These days, racist cops
And other slimy creeps are caught on videos
Killing people like at the movies, except these deaths
Are real, very real. The blood is real. The suffering
Is real not imagined. The pain is excruciating
Our brothers and sisters are killed and buried
At the cemeteries. Greed is old business
In America. Discrimination is prevalent
Racism is not a new venture in America
Violence rules in this crazy and unfair society
But the days of silence and obedience are over
This is a different era, another time. Heaven is empty
And hell is full of criminals and haters that even Lucifer
Is disgusted by all of these nonsensical murders
Postmortem skin pigmentation does not matter
All organs look, smell and rot the same way
Something must be done now, right away
God needs to invent another place
Worse than hell to house the racist criminals
Racism is old business in America
That's why hell is full of crooked and evil vandals
Corrupt politicians and racist rioters or invaders.
