I Apologize

I apologize racist white people.

Yes to all of you.

Form the confederate flag waving “if at first your don’t succeed” types,

To the young man saying “they” shouldn’t have anything to hide,

All the while enjoying the refreshing taste of diet racism.

I apologize to you all.

I apologize that your males flail their limp dicks like fresh fish afraid of a sushi knife.

Talking,

Around table tops covered in their self satisfied,

Jizz,

And it is this racist white people that I must apologize for.

Question,

If our skin color makes us superior why do we then strive to be black?

Why do we insist on taking a day where peace is celebrated and for a man who called out on

White Hills,

Saying “I have a dream” by posing in baggy shorts and drumming on watermelon skin snares.

What?

Cinco de drinkoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Go go go go go our news correspondents in sombreros sipping margaritas on today shows,

Sunrise,

Gotcha,

Let’s all dress up in black face cause black is the new orange,

Shit I just dated this poem.

Universal theme?

Okay!

Why is our sex so lame when you consider all races,

Creeds,

Penis sizes,

And pussy thresholds,

Bend the same,

Squish the same,

All feel amazing based on your (insert preference here)

But dear racist white people how come you say one is better when ancestors past made

Mixed babies Margret Mitchell would never feature in her museum,

Now a feature of southern history so come on down today,

Or is rape another issue grayed between the black and the white of the general populace,

But now deemed unimportant by your foxy boxy news networks,

I apologize it’s hard to keep track.

Overall there are many posers,

Prophets seeking to,

Pollute the minds of youth,

Popping up in,

Pens,

Punctuated with the,

Perfuse lack of common sense,

But that’s like deodorant right?

Those that need it,

Never use it.

By now the lines of this poem are more jumbled then the grammar on a funeral picketer’s

Sign,

Sign that even now we race towards human races bent on hating in heat filled humorless hazes,

Laugh clown laugh,

Cause that’s what you think the “others” are right?

Sad little clowns with degrees in neurosurgery and dressed up in tailored suits,

Monkey suits,

Cause they’re all monkeys,

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I get it,

But hey,

A black man is my best friend.

He shouldn’t be? I should be ashamed?

“Yes young man who yanks at the preverbal dong of white supremacy’s patience for not recognizing race and religion as separate unless your white and Jewish in which case you’re just another Jew in line for hell. Now serving number 44, where would you like to spend damnation? Around or on top of Satan’s pitchfork penis?”

Damn it all to hell the lines of this poem are all over the place I’m sure,

Shit,

Universal theme time again!

Communication,

Gone,

Who runs the world?

I don’t know?

What issues are we saying don’t exist?

Which ones are we making up this week? I apologize for not knowing what to latch onto but the points you make scatter in the wind,

Like lost seeds of sailors hopes drifting to shore after a shipwreck,

In this case your pride,

Because the world is moving past you and all around you more color fills the room and,

You’re color blind.

I apologize racist white people who have helped write the lines of this badly written poem,

Who have prompted the pens of poets for years to write about hate not yet dead,

Hate that charges friends as:

Thieves,

Niggas,

Ching chongs,

And wet backs.

I apologize for understanding you perfectly,

For refusing to let my people die again under a crooked cross.

I apologize racist white people.

I don’t understand why you condemn my Jewish name,

Then ask me to have some pride in my race,

I apologize for the inconvenience of ME NOT GIVING A FUCK…

One last thing……………………

I apologize to all non-racist people,

All the egalitarians that get it,

Yet do nothing about it.

I know you are tired of hearing this.

I’m tired of hearing it too,

A lot of people are.
