Why Are White People the Devil Anyways
from "Shatter Him"
(Buy on Etsy)

It's easy to say that white people
are the meanest, creepiest devils.
And I sort of agree, as I have
experienced
the conspiracy.
I don't think anyone can make me Satan
unless I decide to let them.
So, OK, this poet once upon a time
transfixed me with words,
and I unknowingly fell prey to a notion
that was meant to pit me against...
people of color?

No, I will betray the white man,
as he was stupid enough
to make a deal with me.
For evil destroys its own.
