Well
This Well
Isn’t made for
Wishin….this well
Is for amnesia…
But water has memory of
Trauma that carries
From the sips of
Black bodies…
Slaved Black bodies…
They were forced to drink
Have forgetfulness on their bones…
Massas said never remember…
Stay docile….
Cos this well wasn't
Made for coins…
It was made my people
To forget,
It was intentional…
And you see it's all part of
An abuse…
That water
Does it really make you
Not to remember
Yourselves anyways?
With all that smackin
Slappin
Rapin…
All that pain
All that heartbreak
Slaveowners made our
Ancestors to drink from
That well, From that well
In Nigeria before the ship
Dock….
I heard it's spiritual
Yet the water remembers
Those sad eyes of
Long souls who were captured
From their homes..
Water reminisces their blood
From the filthy hands of colonizers
Maybe the water remembers
Beautiful identities of
Beautiful melaninated race…
The wetness can give it back
The well still holds their origin…
Who knows?
Slavemasters said good boy
Good gal
For drinkin water
Thank you for fulfillin the thirst with
Memory loss..
Now we can control y'all niggers…
