They question why I care

The stare

Deep within my soul of shame

Historical purgatory

Constructed theology

I cringe at the thought

Pegoritive

Nowhere to hide

To go

Exile deferred

My home

My place in time

My heart sublime

Can you not see

Beyond rhetorical  dysentery

My God I love

His lens I find

I look

Neglected child

Alone

Free from facist control

Racial hyperbole

I run

Respond

Race of grace

To find my own eternal place

Stare no more

Let’s leave our own mediocrity

Self obsession

Neurosis defined

And stand

Beyond the walls of bigotry
