It was black and beautiful and brilliant
An eloquence of an elegance of that gallant giant
A barrage of a balm from the Barack
A bridge over troubled matters
A healthy care for all in Yankee ghettos
A bridge for a noble racial co-existence
All by a nose flattened by inherited genes
It was still black but dutiful
A rolled up sleeve
To leave no stone unmoved
A road mapped out
To lead to what all Ameri can
…yes we can!
From mapped out institutions
That must work out solutions
To solutions that must work
All by a nose marked to work to distinction
This Ameri can say
…”yes we can!”

It was a white racing for supremacy
“No nose marks, no entry”
All that he longed for
Was a patch of pink on a pointed nose
On a pitch meant only for those pointed noses
It was a blight of race of humanity
When a Floyd choked under a kneeling policy
It was when a salvo was hurled at Castro of Havana
A brawny engagement with Persia outside Teheran
To pull away a daring nuclear darling
To boycott Wei Hua Wei to suffer an operating system
To tweet at Tik-Tok to retreat to Beijing
Else…
“Else, I want my wall!”
A Mexi can foot the bill for a wall
So an Ameri can fill up the space with a wall
An Ameri
In whose left side there was nothing right
Whose electoral victory handed him a bragging right
But in whose electoral loss painfully left him at a loss
In whose right side there was nothing left
This Ameri can say
…”Ameri can be great again!”
A place uncovered in a dark sunny continent
…to house a shithloe
An unhealthy kick against an Omanma care
But wait till he climbs up the Hill of Capitol
The Citadel of Liberty
Wait to see if an Ameri can climb down
Down the House of White on his own
An Ameri can cry
…till he’s all cried out
But you can bet that they can burst his balloon
…that buffoon

It was white and black and some colours
Without any lack of spice
Abiding with her in the four white walls of honour
In the history of the Kalaharris
She was an Indo-Afro-Ameri
Proving to be a binding balm
For a center that had ceased to hold
After the stormy reign in the rain
Came then the calming rain to reign
To reign in all races of humanity
To chain down all racing for supremacy
To an unfettered release of all from fear of inferiority
To mark all life to matter to all
To piece all pieces together to formulate
peace
To allow all breathing faces to move to greening places
To add a nose on point to a nose lying flat
Now abiding in the White Den
Until then
