malcolm x poem

the warmonger, the cain to martin’s abel

the mixture of the religion of peace and the hatred of other

remember brother and sister, by any means necessary

the radical man, the better martin

the audacity to speak his mind

the face of problack, the face of anti them

does he make you angry? does he offend your senses?

the martyr of the black cats, the black berets

the influence of leftist black youth, the creator of change

the same story over and over, the marches for the same reason

the murder of the suspicious black man

the dismantling of the black cats by the white men in suits

the wails of mother losing another, the anger of brother

the jailing of father, the pregnancy of sister

the rage of us, the black power
