some, driven
by Darwin’s evolution
say you man
was the ape
who was the
animal
who became man
once upon a
changing time.
others say
it was the Abba, Father who formed you
in his own image
out of earth.
and both are
true. so true! so so true!
so long as
you believe…
so today, 2000
and 12 years after Christ
you this man
can say whatever you like
so long as we
like! else you can’t.
so you can
tell us about mountains
we like the waterfalls
the ones
that glide down
and the ones
that plunge in heavy storms
you can tell
us about monkeys
we like
bananas too
they say we’re
black
we don’t know we are
and we don’t
know if we should say we’re something else
but don’t
call us Niggers
else that
would transform us into monsters
and rob us
of rationality
some too say
we are white
yet place our
skin by whitewash and you’d be the confused one
but we are
superior and you better not walk our neighborhood
calling us
Bacon Bits else we’d transform into pink pigs
lose our
brains and shoot you in the head
you have all
the rights
to tell us
how beautiful we imagine ourselves
even if we’re not
but you have
absolutely no right
to tell us
how ugly we are
you still want
to tell us something?
better be
sure we like it before you open your mouth
else don’t
you dare!
