Always And History Proven
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Always and history proven,
Black is the color to pick.
To compare with those white.
As if this to do to choose,
Gives some the right to feel entitled...
To abuse for their own amusement,
A furthering to excuse,
Insecurities to use as a means to expose...
What is obviously shown to show,
An inability to openly address...
Who more imitates a diversified race.
To study, examine and microscope,
From head to toe.
Done to then declare,
Their incompetence, lack of intelligence...
And ignorance enforced,
Is a means to keep fictioned to delude...
A truth many refuse to accept as a reality.
Intentionally meant to deceive,
Those fed to feed on fantasies all their lives!
Historically speaking to either hide or erase,
The facts of life.
