Black Zombies, spiritual bleached.
to be religious crucified on a ivory
cross.
Black bodies, biblical pages of unsung messiahs.
Drain off royal blood and racial classified, to be
trade-able commodities.
Incommode civilization.
Stolen legecy.
Distorted history.
Today's tripling identity crisis.
A whitewash mind is a dirtiest mirror.
Socially engineered Black diamonds, born free
in an un-freed nation.

This write genuinely connects back to the BIBLICAL PAGES of dispossessed bodies and forward to any reader who has a grain of empathy in his/ her soul. Strength is proven by speaking as one vulnerable person to another. Penned to be heard.
