Poets' Corner
This Is
Vulgar abstractionHypothetical construction
Raw deduction
Smell this logical foul
That if shit was gold
The poor would be taxed on the issue
From their asshole!
Dialectics
On my bookshelfBaraka's selected works
Is erected
With tactical consciousness
For fundamental reference
Next to King James' version
of the christian bible.
In The End
In the endYou must know
It’s about love
This struggle for liberation
For self-determination
This fight to be
This rise against iniquity.
