 P.S.: Take Note

We are met again

at the crossroads of delusions

reminiscing failed choices

and broken promises;

here we stand once again

in the vanity of illusions

reflecting tainted truths

and old compromises.

Here they come again

dancing in our faces;

streaming confetti,

blinding revelations of lies,

pretending there’s no more parting

the river of races;

yet our children continue to be

swatted down like flies.

Many lessons have been taught—

few have been learned;

the new day that dawned

was a mere placation

to stall the drive and determination

of freedom yearned.

Little was it realized

that this was—is the same old nation.

Once again they’re at it—

making us the butt

of their everlasting joke;

stop, think—take a good look:

alls claiming

they’ve pocketed our vote!

P.S.: Take note!
