I had A Dream
I had dreamed Freedom for all
Political Prisoners
End/Compensate all
Genocide
Arrest the Police
Repatriate
Release
Stop selection. . .based on Complexion
I Dreamed
My Black Life Mattered
That Justice was for all
Liberty a tree. . .that included me
No more Prisoner Industrial Complex
Knee on necks
I awoke in a sweat/choking on the Reality
of this American Dream
Reminiscing on King
Who also had a Dream
That still hasn’t come true
Hughes said it was deferred
Malcolm denied
For his Mama. . .Floyd cried
Did she hear him. . .do you hear me
Maybe we both sleep
Dreaming different Dreams
Digesting different lies
What you see as aggression
Is really ingestion
I’m bloated on your bullshit
In the streets calling you out on it
Better get use to it
I’m dreaming of Freedom
Protesting, Marching and looting until
I get it.

black people don’t forget
Joe Biden
We like you better than Trump
But you still a Chump
think we forgot the 1994
Crime Bill
that caged our community
Nah uncle Joe
We ain’t forget
Better Not
Plan to hold your pale feet to the fire
Demanding Systematic Change
Beyond Kamala Harris
We remember her record as a DA
Wasn’t that stellar
Happy we are, but sister girl
We watching your ass too
Peeping number one . . . and number two
See exactly what they do
Don’t Perform
Don’t Reform
Come election season
You’ll know the reason
We screaming
Fuck you too.
