Dedicated to our contemporary Black journalistic concession:
Or they observe nothing and celebrate everything.
Dedicated to our contemporary Black journalistic concession:
Or they observe nothing and celebrate everything.
As men
stare
at once blue
skies
under
the eyes of
Gorillas
in
the
Mist.
As we ride buses
pretending
to be working
just
posturing,
As on point
NEGROS
of cowardly
porno
films
of image
mystification
of righteous
NEGROS
under the corporate
state
of
under
a “Buckwheat” democracy
under
the eyes of
Gorillas
in
the
Mist
As NEGROS
drink their
own
empty
seduction
Dancing to
a
jukebox
of
no
music:
posturing
the
GREAT
pretend.
As huge Gorillas
snarl and growl
with
outrageous teeth
and
beat their
huge
Black leather
chest
in a silent movies,
that quickly becomes
unplugged
or
the
lights
are
simply
switched on
only to
become
a
sissy
memory
of lets
pretend.
As centrists
teaching journalism
of celebration
of lets
make-believe
of
bearing
Becoming soaked
pretending
the rain is not falling.
As an East African
teaching
Blacks of the West,
the need to sensationalize
Black trivia
As militancy.
While, the not so
secret to be foretold
that
centrists
almost
always
accommodate
the rationality
of the psychopaths
in power,
Of colorful Negros
wearing a color
past
of
“Make-believe”
with their isolated
backyards
of
militants
under
the eyes
of
gorillas
in
the
mist
So with the
grand fake gold earrings
of
over weight Black
men
of three hundred pounds of beads
on their
wrist
trying
to affect
the mirror shadows
of
a
wise
elder,
only to be seen
as an empty
paper cup
mumbling
memories
of Marcus Garvey
under
the
eyes
of
gorillas
in
the
mist.
As this grand mammal
beaches
amicably
before the projector
becomes
unplugged.
As these centrists
host stages
fof
an
over
sexed
make-believe
women
of
the
Sudan
who
are
madly
in
love
with
Zionist
Israel,
who argue
the question
of race
through
the fight
of
complexion.
Who claim
to fame
was
to be a forced concubine and harlot
to a Saudi princeling of US money
through
a Pakistani restaurant called
ISI to fight Moscow in Kabul.
While the editors
are
looking
for
something
to celebrate,
through long hours
of multi-tasking
only
phone tag
and multi-tasking
head games
of empty
postures.
Whose media
has no role
of giving informred presence
for Black people are good for symbolic
FEEL GOOD
never to be informed
of how to wage their struggle.
Because, they don't need to rock
the boat
of a
“Buckwheat”
Democracy.
As history unplugged
this film projector
of this snarling gorilla.
As Black mothers
of Texas
Become members
of silent movies
as state-run social services kidnapped their children
with the silence
of make-believe
Black newspapers,
under
the
eyes
Gorillas
in
mist.
Who don't produce
anything
of
who men
once stared at once blue skies,
looking for insight,
only to see the inadequate
silence
of pedophiles
in sport showers
of Pennsylvania,
But
were wordless
about sportsmen
pedophiles
of the Bronx
for months.
For these celluloid gorillas
lack the vision
of relevance
gorillas
who pretend to be journalists
never understood that there was
a duty to throw a light on
the state of affairs of the people and their
majority
class.
There is the plight of
surrender,
because their vision is plugged into a
film
projector of convenience.
Because of their tie to machine
of empty images,
they observe nothing
and
celebrate everything.
For image gorillas, its easy to pledge criticism,
but harder to be critical.
For these gorillas, only ask us to
celebrate,
but never to think.
Perhaps history will
show we must unplug
the projector to relevance.....
under
the
eyes
of
the
gorillas
in
the
mist
