I understand there will be some
fraudulent people who claim
they too felt pain, maybe you did
there’s a difference though
it’s not just about slavery…
Jim Crow, Mass Incarceration….
America’s original sin
is stacked on top of more sins
how can they atone for such disgrace?
I’ll give you the answer
within the next few lines
be patient with me
Capitalism is not going anywhere
so we must use it for our social benefits
monthly stipends, free healthcare…
free education, free transportation…
free passports, allow those who suffer
an ease, we cannot defeat pain..I get it..
cutting a check doesn’t fix problems
creating a system that mitigates
helps creates solutions to fix problems
or we can just look at exceptions
and think well they’ve made it
so it can’t be that bad
fool… you fool…
you believe in heaven and hell
but can’t believe in _________
do you feel pain in your conscious
healing others may help heal you
just a theory… just a thought… just a poem
