and dark matter
hides in black holes.

unfolding as it
should....

Did Find In Batter
Did Find In Batter

When a record we will want to shatter,
Must be involved in Black Lives Matter;
No one provoke;
Feelings invoke,
We did find down South in its batter.

Premium Member The Perfect Slogan
'Black Lives Matter'
  the perfect 'PC' slogan
to mask criminal activity
  to 'Defund the Police'

For if black lives truly matter
  the group's aims
  and its violent means
are the height of hypocrisy

Just ask law-abiding black folks
  screaming for police protection
for their families and their community...

Premium Member Chaos In America
Pandemonium 
Pandemic

Frightening
Forest fires

Polar bears dying
Climate change

Depleting ozone layers
Exacerbates cancers and cataracts

Mask versus no mask
Political parties fighting harder than ever

Black lives matter 
Versus The police

Fox news
Versus all other news stations

Chaos 
In America now...

Black Lives Matter
Black Lives Matter
Is a reminder
Black Lives Matter
Is not black primer

Black Lives Matter
Needs to be said
With all the black boys
Ending up dead

Black Lives Matter
Yes, you do too
But blacks girls go missing.
Without all the News 

Black Lives Matter
Is their weighing in
If all lives mattered 
It needn't be said...

Flower Bed
Happiness in the flower bed; 
the colors Blum in the air... 
All colors are different 
so you smell it in the air?


 All you see is one-sided while 
many colors lye here..
 you won't pick the black 
roses because it reminds you
 of your fears... 


Black roses symbolizes death
 and demise but you scream 
black lives matter but my 
flower bed is compromised......

Premium Member Few Are True
Few Are True A nonet to answer this question. Will you still stand four us when Black Lives Matter isn’t trending?
So to this question this I do say. For people lie and are not true. You will get a thousand yes. But only one will do. So this I will say. To all of you. Say good by. Few are true. The sad truth.
By Josehf Lloyd Murchison.

Premium Member Faceless Reflection
Faceless reflection once fair as a flower 
is all the eye can see
now ghostly hollow
we choked then swallowed 
the darkness we can be 

Daunted we are driven still
to find a defining face
forming familiarity’s found 
to follow humanity’s trace

Through glassy eyes of tears like rain
our character lines have faded
Let our colors emerge
from our darkest hour 
Let us not stay shaded!

What Did You Do
What did you do to be white
Why does that make you always right

Born into privileged by race
The humanity you disgrace

Two thirds a human being by law
Jim Crow skirting its flaw

Civil Rights codified by statue
Voting rights gerrymander by venue

Prison filled with poor black men
No bail plea bargaining innocent condemn

A cigarette a bag of skedaddles
A Black Lives matter a riddle

Choked to death at the hands of the law
An evil heart the white mans flaw...

Color Schmers
Colour Schemers

Arab Traders excavated
Europe laid the foundation
The New World framed it perfectly
The rest of the races roofed it

This …
Inordinate economic concupiscence
Shadowy sham, animated by a violent passion
An extraordinary alteration

So… 
Nature convulses
Human dignity reduced to 
Colour: Black, white, brown, yellow

But …
The scale corrects itself
The clock resets
The scheme falls apart

Because …
There is only one humanity
It’s you. 
It’s me....

Black Lives Matter
I can’t BREATHE, why are you on ME? 
I can’t BREATHE, I’m losing oxygen as you can SEE

I can’t BREATHE, you’re taking life from ME
I can’t BREATHE, you’re doing it with one KNEE 

I can’t BREATHE, why is this happening to ME
I can’t BREATHE, all you did was STARE; referencing the other THREE

I can’t BREATHE, somebody please set me FREE
I can’t BREATHE, he’s not answering my PLEA

I can’t BREATHE, I’m not trying to FLEE
I can’t BREATHE, all he got was murder in the third DEGREE...
