BLACK PHOENIX

speaking truth to a nation addicted to lies–standing strong in a world seduced by the buy…taking a knee and taking the heat–raising a fist and crunking the beat…colin the prophet–black jesus reborn…bringing huey’s manic genius to martin’s sacred song…black lives under fire–immigrants under siege…psychic forces breathe deeper–conjuring new creeds…

the athletes revolt rejecting decades of code–shut up and play little darkey–colored boy play your role…serena spoke out–bringing justice to the court…nationwide sports rebranded in red, black and gold–genius writhes deep inside every human soul…neurons fire left to right–frontal lobe recombines…body and mind are not opposites–they are one dialectic…black phoenix flies from the ashes–leaving bigots apoplectic… we pray for you brother–may allah give you strength…channel the buddha’s sacred mindful righteous path…karma comes unexpected bringing revolution to the fore… feel the bern butterflies–rock the streets queer and proud…

unite the fight for a world free of capital’s decay–seize the time and secure our precious place on this earth…we have no time for delay–no room for war games…meditate on these words–love and laugh, hope and pray…classwar babydolls–psychic vengeance reborn…end the tyranny of white supremacy–let humanity be reforged…celebrity is to our polity as pantheons were to egypt and rome…colin’s power is his beauty–his genius and humble pride… tweet your piece–name your pain–let social movement be reborn…

lenin’s genius decentralized in a cadre for whom dogma is scorned… black and beautiful like nina–like nicki–like malcolm–colin’s body inked and branded in cosmic reflection…freedom now and black power were the cry of the movements of old–add to that class power and revolution and we have the zeitgeist of now…bridge the divides that keep our nation red and blue–black and white–the edifice of white supremacy is a cancer that divides… raise your fist bypo freaks–tag a wall and crack a smile…show some love to your sister–a stranger–a bum…colin’s power is transcendent–black phoenix unscarred…black jesus everlasting–a revolution in our hearts…
