At their feet
While being feed-
ed! With right,
not that White-
Influenced history,
which is opposite
what really happened
to our ancestors
while laboring,
slaving out their sweats!
Suffering
as slaves
after being sold out
by African chiefs,
who were influenced
by mirrors
and gin and
even cowry shells.
We were mis-educated!
Mungo Park
Discovered
River Niger
Yeah!
African people were
Not reckoned with
Madam Tinubu
Kosoko
and more
All
Sold
Their conscience
Selling kith and kin
Into slavery
Slave masters should be pitied
Even much more
Than slaves!
In dehumanizing blacks
Were even suffering more
Isn’t it time
To get down
From white horse
Of fake superiority
And realize
Equality
Of humans
Of all
Races
Genders
Whites
Blacks
Yellow eyed
Black eyed
Short
Tall
Fat
Thin
Gay
Straight
Bisexual
Heterosexual
Monogamous
Polygamous
All are God’s creatures!
