Conflicting interests
Whose worlds collide
Flamboyant...openness
...Yet....a secret..side
Now we sat at the mercy
...Of nefarious....assault
Too late...recognizing....
It was our own damn fault
The lesser of the evils
We ignored that voice
Ballot box.....offering
...A viable....choice
We sat at the side lines
...Just watching....in awe
Denying......the future....
Though...the future we saw
Forked-tongued speaking
...In.......explicit terms
Lie...after lie....raising...
No responsible concerns
It wasn't ignorance driven
...'Twas...a bigoted base
Certainly not the economy...
But overt matters....of race
*

Thus...a challenge to every bigot
....Request...a simple...DNA
Its...comprehension...perhaps
...Might....pave...the way
To a clearer understanding
Of the fallacy...folks paint
....A clinical...revelation....
Of what is...and what ain't
