Black Man: Welcome to the Terrordome
hunted
haunted
by extraneous applications
apparitions of enemies
long gone
past
present
future
He remains
Public Enemy Number One
church going
employment maintaining
law abiding citizen
still gets the benefits of
shot and killed
fitting the description
unlawful accusation and incarceration
as you tell us
the next fad and cliché
that the dream can be attained
but wait
we are doing the correct things
backbones, pillars and lights
in society
still having to be wary of
each traffic stop
entering your home
going for a jog
It was just so much easier for them
when they just saw us
killing and robbing
for chicken sandwiches, trinkets and bobbles
they could openly continue to scream
see there
see what I mean
how they act
in order to administer
open hatred dipped in
orchestrated alleged equalities
their fear no longer remains
it now screams
black men
are no longer the enemy
but the end of their living
the cataclysm they fear
is already here
it is
