                                                                                                        Hearings...

Hearings hear mad love for fetus, flag and constitution… Hear

dog whistle dialogue delivered by bought and bossed Jim Crow

Magnon men in Brooks Brothers suits. Hear Show Me State,

Lone Star State,Tar Heel, Palmetto, Pelican, Volunteer State

method actors serving at the pleasure of corporate pay

masters…

Hearings hear clownish conflicts of interest. Hear questions asked,

re-asked—over and over. Hear porn projection/predilection—off

hands working under desks overtime—gifting us pubic hair-Coke

can confirmations: The likes of Long Dong Silver and his neo-nazi

confederate-handler-wife. (Hi, hoe Silver!) Hearings reveal rot of

Greed-driven capitalism…

Hearings hear walking war crimes. Hear war criminals who clean up

well. Hearings hear lapel pin patriots/January 6th orchestrators of the

storming of Capitalist Hill—wannabe il Duce-Führer-Francos…

Hearings hear sadomasochist Senators Sleazy and Slimy— hear gold-

dipped strings pulled by greasy-thumb fossil fuel/war profiteer

personhoods—more hood than person…

Hearings hear angry, bitter, wicked weaponized/under-caffeinated—

mostly mediocre— ‘white’ men longing to hear themselves grieve…

Hearings hear legislative lynch mobs armed with face-lifted language;

bullet-pointed buzzwords for burning Black women at the televised

stake—As skillfully as suiciding them in Southern jails; Or

shotgunning Grandmothers in The Bronx…

Hearings hear overseers’ stripes—savage beatings—below lines of in

quiry dripping from quivering lips. Hear coded calls for Black women to

get on the Lightfoot. Take the bass out their voices befo’ confederate

cesspools. Befo’faux dens of decorum—passing gas with judgement…

Hearings demand explanations not explaining conclusions not concluding:

“The Framers” are those framing 50% of sisters and brothers behind bars!

And only Mama Harriet Black Gurl Magic: Now you see me—now you

don’t; Now you see my family—now you don’t…can free ‘em all… And

hearings—cameras pulled, headlines dissolved—are really about jumping

judges into Wall Street gangs of intersectional empire… for life…
