Difficult to parallel paradigms when
Their shifts are juxtaposed, but with
Gravitational references giving respect
To weightlessness and the weighted
Historical baggage of American racism,
Cosmic and terrestrial revelations
Become as enlightening as the stars.
The anti-gravitational pull
Of weightlessness in outer space
Theorizes well, the upward floating
Away of justice for blacks down here
Spaced-out in oppression on planet Earth:-
Indeed, the weighted historical baggage
Of oppression carried on the backs of blacks
On the planet Earth, is aching to the pull of gravity
On the revolving service of the launch pad at the
At the Kennedy Space Center in Florida with
A teaspoon of a neutron star sitting atop it!
Yet, over the many centuries of rising and setting
Suns in our revolving sojourning flights across the
Space of injustices on Earth known as America, we
Remain as a shaking “people soda” with the cap about
To pop releasing long-awaited shooting star liberation.
The lack of or the gravity of attention given to
The overall injustices and inequalities of wellness
On planet Earth is as easily seen as are its constellations
When viewed through the telescope of monetary distributions
Geared towards solving problems down here “vs” those up there:
ten… four…
nine… five… three…
eight…seven…six… two…
