“Not she dispensed, but took the coated pill.
Cleopatra’s needle fell from hands incontinent
While Ceasar’s feet stamped patterns of his will
On outspread rugs of an enchanted continent.”
-Wole Soyinka (Mandela’s Earth and Other Poems)
“They want the oil
But they don’t want the people”
-Jayne Cortez
“African violet, ain’t you through dreamin’ yet
With all your roots so deep, why are you still asleep”
-Terry Callier
“Dem bring sorrow, tears, and blood . . .
Dem regular trademark . . .”
-Fela Anikulapo-Kuti
Afrika
has given herself out –
world parenting
has did her in –
accommodating
her devilish children
she has nothing left
for herself
turning on herself
murdering herself
crawling on her hands and knees
to reward her riches
to heathen brats
and selfish rats
the racist west
and the racist east
all move in to feast
upon her sweets
while she feels the sting
from Washington to Nanjing
she has loved everyone
but herself
traded her soul
to thieves and tyrant slavemasters
blasphemed the beauty of blackness
she has been crushed and crucified
bowed down to assassins and vampires
allowing her treasures
of wealth, knowledge, and history
to become buried beneath the sands
of racism, fascism, and misery
poisoned by self-hatred
raped, ravaged,
ambushed, bartered, starved, and savaged
her scriptures
stolen, distorted,
declassified, diluted,
dissolved, twisted,
groomed for doom
Mother of Humanity –
Civilization’s womb
her tombs raided
her beautiful locks of hair
burned to be straightened and braided
by hands of demons
in monied salons
her truths absorbed
into the temples of liars
her saviors displaced and discolored
boered and contorted
shunned and made to look retarded
she has no voice
for her own traditions and graces
most ancient wildlife
and mystic places
instructor and teacher
of the Greeks
hoodwinked, crushed
and put to sleep
Maat, CreationMother
Borne Suns from the aether
Highest Queen Isis
Grandmother of Jesus
Our Most Divine Goddess
Tricked into a reverse process
To disgrace what Creation has blessed
she has been tortured and transformed
into an image of poverty and disgrace
used as a heathen tool and marker for race
her children to become a mass of united snakes
with extraordinary renditions and constant fear
to perpetually remind her
that she must remain weak,
dependent, and obedient
to the ruthlessness of sellout dictators
and undermining pirates and tyrants
she surrenders her great resources
for murderous military forces
who only slash her breasts
and in turn reward her
with disease, debt, and death
who remembers the
greatness of Kemet?
who is exposed to the history lessons
of Cheikh Anta Diop?
now, she imitates
her brutal, bloodsucking brats
now she accepts
the images, ideologies,
theocracies, and demanding realities
of these heartless bullies
who lead her to her own destruction,
chaos, and cruelty
Afrika has betrayed herself
and now prays for herself
and displays herself
as a follower and friend
to her barbarian children
and all their reinvented religions
and historic revisions
of angelic demons
who glorify
her bleeding and killing
my Ancestors call me
from that part of Earth Mother
older than any name
my Ancestors tell me
that no hue-man/human
deserves this much hatred, pain, and shame
it is time to end suffering
heal and be clean again
it is time to climb
to a higher plain
it is time
for a miraculous paradigm shift
for this planet’s
wondrous and most holy gifts

“clearing my mind
in order for the Sun to shine
through me again”
-Maiysha Malinye Naima
privilege
produces hatred
produces
the hunger
for power
produces
the violence
necessary
to take
what belongs to others
including
their bodies
and Spirits
under God
produces
dehumanization
produces
slave systems and
caste-concepts
produces
the dungeon mind
where torture
is explored
and the fatal seed of war
is planted
produces
those who would create
the highest technology
and the most terrible machinery
to murder humanity
for the worst definition
of a selfish dignity
personifications of infamy
produces
the reversal
of all righteous precepts
proposed by the greatest
of our wisest
produces
a planet
at odds with its
Natural Laws
twisted, undermined,
bent toward
mortal flaws
produces
the pre-evil-edge
that fools the mind
dishonors the dead
blind
to the eternal
ties that bind
never to attain
the truly divine

“It is a new America
To be spiritualized by each new American”
-Jean Toomer (The Blue Meridian)
new world i am
russian-german-asian-african-american
full spectrum human
Stalin’s daughter
Svetlana Alliluyeva
a part of this new land
Khrushchev’s son
Sergei
a part of this new land
Wernher von Braun
once Hitler’s rocket man
now a part of this new land
Yuri Kochiyama
Malcolm X’s friend
with roots from Japan
now a New World revolutionary
in this final new land
all blend
into a yet to be seen
new nation
Israeli, Palestinian
Chinese, Tibetan
Indian, Tamil, Sri Lankan
all in
this new land
North African, South African
West European, East European
Bosnian, Serbian,
Iraqi, Iranian
Christian, Muslim
God-ism, Agnosticism
Spiritualism, Atheism
all in
this final new land
all of what i am
humanity will sink or swim
in this final new land
all of what i am
we,
who are here
are all the Chosen
to be here
to share the air
to fight despair
to live
and to care
to freely worship
the idea
all i am
infinite expansion
theory in motion
when will you begin
to grasp the meaning
in practice, the Omni-Spirit-Being
the greater the monster
the greater the savior
remember that the Soul
is beyond any body
beyond every body
beyond all bodies
beyond all givers and takers
the final righteous stand
will take place in this last new land
the next process for the evolving human
transcending the terminology of “fair game”
all the breadths
of an infinite breath
further than life
further than death

“it is not true
that it is not true
that’s how it was
first at first and then again”
-May Ayim (autumn in germany)
black and white fascism
is now religion
a mutant form of racism
and stealth terrorism
protecting evil corruption
with censorship and repression
fear-mongering, and brainwashing
and calling for unjust assassinations
and executions
they have dumb-downed
every nation
to the point
of disintegration
bodysnatchers
now rule Creation
subhumans
and demons
ascend beyond
religion and belief
transcend the body
and find true Spiritual relief
no need for secrets
no need to patch power leaks
maybe being able to find a place
truly inheritable by the meek
silly mortals will never get it
en masse waste of worlds and wires
evolution is natural revolution
the Cosmos never retires
humanity
is not an infinite reality
nor an
immeasurable entity

“From WakanTanka, the Great Mystery, comes all power. It is from WakanTanka that the holy man has wisdom and the power to heal and to make holy charms. Man knows that all healing plants are given by WakanTanka; therefore they are holy. So too is the buffalo holy, because it is the gift of WakanTanka.”
-Flat-Iron [Maza Blaska] (late 19th century)
Oglala Sioux chief – (“Native American Wisdom,” by Edward S. Curtis)
what happens
when the sacred voice
is honed and attuned
to the point
where only silence is needed
for higher communication?
stop
look
listen
to the simplistic
to atone
for the madness
of loudness
and business –
busy, busy, busy
fuss, fuss, fuss
talk, talk, talk
rush, rush, rush
while nothing improves
and people lose their trust
all of us
have this sacred voice
that most do not take the time
to find
everything heard
and everything seen
has its reason
for being
we,
who are here,
are all the chosen
to be here
to share the air
to fight despair
to live
and to care
cease being an offender
to the position of Creator
vibrate with the subtle motions
atone for your balance in being
omni-dimensional, at one
at/one
a/tone
a
sound
Earth
song
