Mother America’s Birthday
Being black in America is like being
born from the womb of, and entrusted to
the care of, a deranged white woman who
curses the day she conceived you.
She won't let you starve for fear of what
the neighbors might say.
But she will remind you daily of how
worthless you are and beat you mercilessly
for minor infractions that your white brothers
and sisters commit with impunity.
And she will do everything in her power to ensure
that you remain hopelessly mired in the muck of her
craftily camouflaged, cramped and cluttered back yard.
Happy Birthday, Mother America.
Please get some help.
