“Sh!t on it!”
says one.
“Kill it if you can!”
says another.
They’re atop the holy grail, the “H” on the Hollywood Sign.
It’s 10 milky men,
With 10 filthy smirks,
Atop the holy grail.
“Hail thee Mighty!”
“Hail thee Powerful!”
It’s ten atop the sail,
of the Santa Maria!
We must bow down,
Don’t show resistance.
Neglect neglection,
Neglect the distance.
We are thrown,
We are spat,
We are forced
To show submission.
For it’s 10 pallid men
Atop the holy grail.
Father, Son, Spirit,
And Creation.
Disregard inhumanity,
Disregard our existence.
For there’s living,
But not here.
It is there,
Far above our muddy trails.
Yet in our hearts, lives a world of color,
A world unrestricted, a world that’s unscripted!
10 vile white men,
Writing our fates in their 10 vile black pens.
Yet within the underground roads,
Beneath Mount H-Wood
There lives a tribe, a community,
A nation.
There lives a world of restoration,
Kindness seeping through the dirt.
Disregarding accusations,
Only focused on salvation.
Salvation for the People,
Salvation for the Earth.
We are not dogs, we are not dirt
We are people, just like thee.
And our sympathy,
WILL outnumber.
For we are focused on one unanimous truth,
That all humankind is created equal.
“Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness”
With our kindness seeping through the dirt,
We’ll unearth our hearts and show our worth.
We will no longer neglect neglection,
We will embrace this new resurrection!
Our colors will reach the peak and sprout new life,
Flowers of Red, Blue, White.
Trees of Black and Brown firm trunks
With luscious green leaves.
We will dethrone the crooked hands which once controlled
Our destinies, and we will rewrite our future!
No longer do we submit to the waves of a sail,
No longer do we bow down to the smirks of the pale.
We are a multicolored People,
We are a Kaleidoscope of colors, and skin,
And love, and womanliness, and far beyond a binary!
The 10 white men on the Hollywood Sign
Will tumble.
Thank God for Vertigo!
