the fences
memes of bee movie and arthur's fist
conservative politicians and twitter flips
the land i am in deems a laughingstock
while immigrants stir the melting pot.
i dug the holes of the holy saints
in it resides the ugly truth in every picture it paints.
i played the role of plato's hidden cave dweller
escaping through the words of false fortune tellers
i am more aware of what is happening
the truth of unconscious fallacy quickly unwrapping
itself in its confusion as i search for my identity
with vigorous waves heating my entity
the world sweeps through hell while we worship for our heavens
swallowed us whole from the mouth of kraken
my two eyes then witness blood spilling from the tv news
with the tell tale hearts in a nation of myriad blues
history repeats and i have seen them all
while the curtains pull, one man sends the call
the call of departure, to leave our movements
let the hard rain fall through ambers of translucent
i believe that this nation will amend its centuries old wounds
while we relive through the purity of the coccoons
as long as we fall and face through treacherous torture
we will unite as one in the future
and i, become of one conscious
with my blood so serene
and that is what i learned and grew from two-thousand and sixteen.
