euphemistic truths

tribute to my fellow poet/friend bobby gonzalez
no, no, no!
the word is not defeat
the word is appease
please stop!
the phrase was never "enslave color people"
the code word is "acculturation"
can you please
not say "cultural diffusion"
repeat after me" cultivation"
kindly
not say "the exploitation of the mother earth"
instead say" utilization of natural resources existing"
had enough?
there's more one can always learn
check it out, check it out
don't say "colonial proliferation"
say " colonial abomination"
under the guidance of charming sounds words
we seize what they have and cherish as our own
no matter how hard they strategize
according to their beliefs and customs
they won't be able to resist
their battles for self-detemination will forever be undermined
by factorial history with our sensationalize euphemistic truths
so always remember,
don't call it "tribal termination"
call it" integration of indigenuous populations mainstreaming america"
