POETRY
Garrulous Mindset
Shawntaye Scott
We’ve been fettered for many centuries,
Forced to relinquish our various cultures;
Our auras, our sprits, our pheromones,
Everything invisible to the naked eye,
But realizing beneath our sliced flesh,
We may be dying but we won’t forget.
We, the dark opprobriums of this planet,
Snatched up from our native homelands
By presumptuous, angelic, savage beasts
Will never truly be destroyed; for we are
The mothers and fathers of all humanity,
We will always be the original Adam & Eve.
