My Nascent Poetic Tribute To Black History Month

My Nascent Poetic Tribute To Black History Month   though I yam Caucasian,     tis rightful to honor that most bitter racist genocidal crime 
   nonetheless ovation qua 

   quintessential significant contribution 
   vis a vis that doth litter
   many anonymous multitudinous peoples 
   many unknown dark skinned souls 

   bravely fought as non quitter 
with melanin so coon sitter  
   this 
asthma feeble attempt 
   made to mind of literate     parent, guardian or sitter adorn aye rhythmically twitter          to Homo Sapiens with Negroid color     who, despite being human bondage 
   managed to adorn
   worthy contributions to society,
 

though an American (though not so proud)
   and civilization since time immemorial

   hence, I wanna pay poetic homage     to persons born  akin to diversity exemplifying gamut       analogous to Indian corn
   debased brutally and forlorn    and raised in cornucopia horn  of plenty with rare serf tenderness   whipped by wicked task masters 
   from the crack of morn,     aye cannot fathom why     a great proportion of humanity    must struggle on scraps of subsistence viz with fifty plus shades of chocolate 
   vile shamefully opprobrious sworn
   vengeance toward those 

via heroic efforts escaped, 
   manacled, tortured, et cetera history 
   as slaves an existence 
until...pacified family dislocated     sans rent asunder, ripped and torn.   Once a proud family akin to Brady bunch, now brutally, nasty     and short lived poorly destitute     (case in point) like Haiti - 

once a nation extant with cultural finery     insidiously raped "Lady"
lacerated odiously robbing     unique peoples as owners didst slay

   practically naked "Primates"     encaged like wild animals in zoos    culturally robbed while     abhorrently marched in ones and twos

   shredded souls without shoes     (analogous to persecuted Jews)     of singular ambition to break shackles     though tightly fused to life as they chose.

this just one example of many peoples 
   UNFAIRLY subjected  to subservience and exempt     from enjoying the fruits of their labor.

January twelfth two thousand and ten (original date this communique writ then kept wedged where in no wise bore visual witness   vis a vis near annihilation and destruction of African, Haitian, South American, et cetera nations whereby countless/ nameless individuals      e’en the strongest Herculean type men
   crushed by humungous slabs of 
   building facades practically     demolishing every creation 
since this island settled, which 
   indigenous tribes sought safety     in any geologic den
   seeking solace and salvation 
     from wrath of nature     by paying obeisance via oblation 
perhaps giving credence to clear water 
   in tandem with rooster and hen

   that laid a golden egg, especially 
   as encroaching savages affected violation
particularly when Europeans 
   foisted forfeiture of land       with primitive implement like pen
   no matter that travesty, trickery, mockery, 
   et cetera wrought humiliation
pleading invaders to forsake 
     such actions that rent asunder     culture beseeched god when
   these brutish, nasty 
   and (shortish) Hobbesian simians 
   to cease desecration

yet the peoples of this dominion rose 
   from the ashes like the phoenix like bird
   no mattered genetic pool underwent 
   white washing from scouring influx
from western thumping proselytizers, 
   which alien beliefs hard to swallow like curd
   basically bribery (with lustrous trinkets) 
   ah those coveted legal tender   upon emancipation proclamation cessation    to sell men, women and for x amount of bucks 
akin to the soundcloud winged fowl clucks foisted/ forced the unpleasant alternative 
   (wanton slaughter) to be clearly heard
   yet within the very fiber of tropical 
   man grove persons patiently     lined up their ducks

and declared as one of the first 
   african american peoples     INDEPENDENCE to be the word
   whence adulation, elation, inspiration
echoing across ramshackle greensward.
