Political does best here

Political does best here.


With your spears

of political correctness

That stabs us all with labels of:

“African-American”

And “Native American”


But according to Facebook

Native is considered being grown

In a foreign Caucasian fetus

That dominates its environment

Like a super virus developed by

This ill born government.

Which I might say was cultivated

By the Pacific tribe of give and take.


We gave you our tips on cultivating farms

And we receive diseases, death and defame

Our faces not recognized on milk cartons,

Tribes erased like a mistake on a school paper.


We are not needed.

With our genes and skin that was gifted

To us by our beloved creator.

It’s a natural tan,

To remind us that we are born from

The womb of Mother Earth.


And yet,

You sit in tombs of artificial light

Wanting this tone,

This color that you see unfit

That you deemed “dumb”.


What we gave was life

In the canal systems that we built.

And took only what was needed

Food and clothing.

Teachings handed through time,

Again you tossed it away like

your unborn kids

Who didn’t fit the standard norm

Of this society.


Take what you need,

Know your clans,

Know where you come from.
