Your Time is Running Out

You cheer with a sarcastic edge

You laugh and jump for joy

You hail the hatred and vile rhetoric

These past four years you have become more vocal, overt and methodical with your racist taunts and acts of violence and intimidation

You deny the truth, shoot out lies and place vitriol on a pedestal

You follow the twisted, repulsive and hollow words of a man that doesn't even care about you

You probably don't realize that

You just want to belong somewhere

You feel forgotten-not important-left behind

You are angry that the "elite" has no respect for you

They are your enemy and are taking away your freedom

You need to belong and be part of something bigger than you

It is exhilarating and your endorphins pump through your body

When you join with others who are seeking to fill their empty souls through 

degrading those who you blame for your insecurity

You believe the most outrageous-delusional fabrications of reality that could ever be imagined

You gather together and stoke these falsifications to the point of frenzy

And you are intoxicated from the adrenalin of the moment

And that is what you cling to in your life

That is your creed

That is what you stand for

But you don't realize the shame

You believe your White skin protects you

Gives you privilege and entitlement

You thrust yourself in the chaos of disenfranchising and marginalizing minorities and immigrants

You vote for candidates whose reality is so far off the charts one has to second guess what planet they came from

But they tell you what you want to hear

And that feels good to you even though it is all a lie

Is this the story of your life?

Is this all you got?

Is this your legacy?

You don't have the right to step on anyone's body

You don't have the right to suppress those from speaking their truth and voting for what they believe in

You malign those that stand up for their civil liberties because that intimidates your fragile ego

You project your hatred-bigotry-lawlessness and deception onto those who you fear and who fight back 

You try to silence anyone that stands up to your White supremacist propaganda and oppression 

Go ahead and believe in your self absorbed dark ideology your heart desires 

But don't think for one second that you can Act on your miserably mistaken belief that you are better than anyone else that doesn't look like you or who doesn't believe in your bull shit

Don't you dare act like you own this country

Your psyche is so insecure you feel you have to have the upper hand over everyone else whose beliefs are rational who aren't threatened by civil-social-economic equality for all 

You and your White Nationalist fraternity are declaring a civil war on innocent citizens and the American government

Good luck to that

No friggin way

We won't let that happen

I feel no compassion for your delusion

It's pitiful how you ride around waving your repugnant confederate flags and displaying your semiautomatic weapons like they are some sort of trophy

Your arrogance and bravado aren't impressive

You drive your pickup trucks down the road like you're the cavalry

Your righteousness is far from graceful

We the people have had enough 

We are coming together

No more divisiveness

We all deserve to be free and live in truth

We are coming together

You don't see that 

You're not aware that there are more White folks that are starting to understand how we as a society are divided racially

We see you

Your violence and brainwashing

How you manipulate vulnerable, wounded and lonely men to cling to your words on some social media platform

And they become motivated to go into churches, mosques, synagogues to open fire on innocent worshippers or burn the place down

That's what gives you victory, security and contentment

You display swastikas and chant "you will not be replaced"

You wear your maga hats and feel all powerful

You storm the Capitol 

You feel all victorious

How pathetically patriotic you are

You don't have the capacity to understand real freedom of speech

The protests this past summer, the ones that have happened for decades

Where people of color have demanded the end of oppression and equal rights

This goes over your head because you are shut down to real freedom

And you complain about your free speech and your right to bear arms

And your White nationalist politicians who undermine any and all policy to end all bigotry and racism

How those elected officials who coldly and without flinching, aggressively vote for legislation that suppresses the Black vote 

And you demand your first amendment rights

You riot-take over-vandalize-kill-injure-traumatize police-citizens-elected officials

You say you were doing it for your president

For your country

We don't buy that

Your ridiculous purpose in throwing a violent-horrific tantrum

We will stand up to you 

We will hold you accountable

We will rise up

We will speak the truth

We will open our hearts to those who need healing and compassion

We will unpack the unjust system we live in

Which means if you can't get on board we will need to find a place for you

But your stance in our democracy-in our society-the idea that there are those who are privileged and those who are shunned is coming to an end

I know you don't want to hear or see this

I get it

But take my word

Your time is running out
