Text to Resurrect Revolution

Countee Cullen
And I are of this consensus:
Prejudice drafts psychopaths.
Their warpaths
Transfix our people to many a crucifix.
There resides the reason why
My protest must never relax
From typing its attacks.

Addressed to your psyche,
My compositions are microphones for
Emmett Till, Michael Griffith,
Yusef Hawkins, Amadou Diallo,
Sean Bell, Ramarley Graham,
Trayvon Martin, Darius Simmons,
Jordan Davis, Renisha McBride,

Eric Garner, et cetera,
Et cetera, et cetera.

Addressed to your psyche,
You can hear the murdered entreat:
“Don’t allow another name to join
A homicide report sheet.
Don’t allow another name to join
A homicide report sheet.”

Addressed to your psyche,
The compositions
I’ve written are parts of a bulletin,
The passages transmit
To our terra firma’s retina.

Addressed to your psyche,
My protest wants life

To evict the combustive
And discriminative.
If armed with you,
Lawfulness will live.

i'm circling the code in your feed
all of that chargeable plastic and backwards humanity
overcast drones with a chance for malaise
i'm trying to remember geometry of your smile
but it's hard, it's a new poetry, data enclosure
live stream murder porn clickbait insomnia 
every second of every day i'm waiting for the collapse of this unit
and freedom of speech don't mean shit if you you don't have freedom of body
and movement, body and movement 
i'm ordering take out to take in no take backs i'm sleeping beauty 
except i sleep light and wake up early, no dreams
drink my coffee outside with the blue skies and vultures eyeing my bloodcount

i grow older, not wiser, per say, but my lungs feel ok
i can breathe in most days with just minor discomfort
what more can you ask for, and by the way
i grow older, not wiser, per say, but my lungs feel ok
i can breathe in most days with just minor discomfort
what more can you ask for, and by the way

this is the dress i'm wearing to the rapture
i made it myself from my fears and longings 
this is the dress i'm wearing to the rapture
it's not much comfort but i hope you like it

every day is the same, i walk these plains
without purpose or meaning
there is no oasis but the misery is endearing
like an old friend, a parable 
of sons lost and holy ghosts 
we pass the time playing scrabble but the words fall between the cracks
spin the bottle with the light low and heart attacks
my name is jonah and this whale is my hope and promise
he reminds me of my past and keeps me honest

repeat chorus

always ambulatory
