I got it,
our social class was a major determinant...

La-Di-Da 
existence desired 
never able to obtain 
the coveted lifestyle
high falutin pompous 
arrogant attempts made
towards obtaining the 
obscure illusive snooty 
characteristics of the 
desired social class 
of the ritzy aristocract 
sitting a top their thrown
looking down upon the lower 
class of society...

Capitalist
A world ruled only by capitalist’s ideology,
The proletariat continues to adhere to their beliefs and philosophy
A society with one world order,
An the existence of a social class border,
Oppression and depression that’s what the poor cry
One ruler with one suggestion,
An entire nation with a level of high economic suppression.

Living Dangerously
A moon interrupted; 
riles the social class. 
A native sense comes of age.

Piercing stare becomes rarefied,
unbuttons the peaks and 
kills you with a mallet.

The scared mask falls 
off the divine embrace, lets 
free the pigeons from the golden cage.

The forked tongue will 
speak only truth. Blood 
was the only stain, washed easily.

I will get the tan 
in moonlight only. My scars 
will remain invisible in silver.

Inflictions of Whiteness
A white Santa showed a child the skin tone of the top brass
A white doll to an innocent black girl contrasts ugliness

A white wedding was beauty redefined as a cloak on a lass
A white Jesus, before we repented, repainted righteousness

A white collar is how we elevated and segregated a social class
A white angel flew from heaven and misrepresented its race

A black me is fighting a mind conditioned to be last
A black me is sometimes a victim of an innocence of whiteness...

Premium Member Where Is the Sky
Blue sky on day light
Multi shape of grey, white clouds
Randomly transfer

Dark sky at nighttime
Sparkle stars spread in vague screen
Moon isn’t ever full

Behind dark and blue
The Man’s eyes cannot attain 
But an endless guess 

Universe gobbles sky
That covered anybody’s head 
Man’s faith since his birth  

The ritual faith that  
Originated the social class:
Man stoops other Man 

Might the souls fly high 
To bind on clouds, moon or stars
Since there is no sky...
