Monday 1st June 2020
It's easy to forget.

Babies forget objects when they don't see them anymore
because their brains haven't developed.

Racists forget objections when they don't affect them anymore
because their brains haven't developed.

lyrics

It’s the definition that
objections continue to exist
even when they can’t be perceived

That the guilty remain
dutily long after they finally rest
in a peace ill-received

Just ‘cause it’s such a beautiful day
doesn’t mean the world
stops slowly suffocating

For every breed freed from the threat,
seven more take its place
and cease generating

When the president was black,
the filth didn’t step back
from profiling posthumously

You don’t think it’s a joke
when you find other folks
barely poke at your roast profusely

You and me get to see
days without decisions that don’t carry
the world in response

Our objections are relative
to a paradigm sedative
leftover from the last renaissance
