Tri-tanic
Raymond Nat Turner, BAR poet-in-residence
24 Jun 2014
🖨️ Print Article

by Raymond Nat Turner

On the “road to slavery, for the third time,” straw-bossed by “a Quisling Black bourgeoisie.”

 

Tri-tanic

by Raymond Nat Turner

 

Veering, weaving wildly, running over 

Glaring white and amber kadrunkas— 

Thunk-thunk-thunk— skidding off the 

Bone-paved, blood-slcik, winding road

Slavery to freedom, for the third time:

Reaganomics Gulch; Crack Cocaine Cul-de-sac;

The Titanic this time, slamming into Iceberg

Slim, sprawled on stoops, porches, bar stools, high

Beams on crack pipe politics…nodding out 8 years

On Gitmo, droning, wars, spying, bankster bailouts,

8 years of *NAS Fathers Day, commencement speeches, 

8 years of water-boarding with Cristal, 

Judas Black bourgeoisie debriefing  

Democratic Party patrons, backseat of a Bentley…

 

* N $#@%% Ain’t S*%^
