the land of hypocrisies
the home of the slaves
the era of terror before 911
when Columbus
"dis' covered (Native) amerikkka"
ask all the indigenous people
and the disease placed in blankets
when given to them as gifts
ask all the Tuskegee spirits
that were innoculated with
syphillis
ask the South African black folks
how Jim Crow felt...?you did know that
apartied's father was named Jim Crow,
he resided in the US of A
the land of hypocrises
the home of the slaves
the era of terror before 911
how about 1712 Virginia
when the twin towers were
auction blocks and Africans
stood on the roofs praying to God
and devil minded people grew deaf
and sold all of them 'til not
one was left
and at that time/SAm pronounced
this is the "Land Of The Free"
...............................................
as yokes and shackles and chains
chimed in the wind/
right off Virginian shores
in this melting pot freedom is relative
not a relative that would
shed blood for you die for you
if we were to fast forward the times
and drop the template on today
thr rules would fit
the same in this
land of hypocrisies
the home of the free?
the land of the slave
