June 2nd, 2020 - Pennsylvania rescheduled primary voting day

rew4er2nail

 

(alternately titled: Whew...
so glad I chose absentee/ mail-in ballot),

and agitate (poetically)
November presidential election

brings requisite equality.

 

Unforeseen (unprecedented)
stiff competition with protesters

crowdsourced within major

Pennsylvania metropolitan areas

necessitating president


to confront inconvenient truth

he (whom even

Voldemort would not name)

must trumpet forth progressive

unilateral talks addressing:

 

non discriminatory racist practices,

crippling endowed freedoms

(life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness)

denied those who identify as "black"

far to long sabotaged opportunities


to experience unfettered, (albeit invisible)

shackles that unfairly deliberately punish
(brownie points given) those

who destroy innocent lives without impunity

warrants radically kickstarting

 

revolution, which catalyst

can augment and implement investment

within marginalized populations,

thru courtesy and gerrymandering

disenfranchisement and gerrymandering

 

impose unfair disadvantages

linkedin to actual and physical enslavement

since encroachment of Europeans

into the heart of darkness (Africa)

ripped apart (rent asunder)


fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters

subjecting violence against indigenous tribes

after uprooting worthy zealots

regarding their own gods

forcibly chaining men,

women and children

blithely lacerating
for most minimal infraction

commanding them gratis
an unfamiliar language.

 

Countless generations elapsed

whereby Negro people

forced servitude did witness
recurring admirable bounteous mutiny

(ofttimes witnessing savage revenge

at the hands of cruel master)

many occasions leaving for dead

lovely bones once constituting

strong, muscular and agile fellow man

(thank genetic circumstance

donned his/her skin ebony)

endowed with motto
give me liberty, or give me death

emancipation proclamation

announced postbellum,

yet poor living conditions

 

disallowed, discouraged, disenchanted...

former slaves imposing inherited hardships

prevailing today, where
white supremacist enemies

and bigots in general, particularly one

who occupies white house

 

Yes folks, an altruistic Joe (biden his time)

must be elected as catalyst ushering major reforms

whereby cooperation among rainbow coalition,

cuz peace on Earth and goodwill

toward all men/women haint impossible mission!
