You want me to be quiet

 You want me to be quiet…

You want me to be quiet…

Don’t speak a word…

Keep it to myself, right?

Cos I might make white folks 

Feel uncomfortable….

You said it’s not the right time 

To talk, to post…

When?

Cos racism comes and lingers 

All the damn time….

White folks created this mess…

It’s theirs….they made white 

Most favorite color in the globe…

Am I lyin?

Am I tellin a fib?

Nope…..

I don’t have to be quiet…

I don’t want to….

I am dangerous…

A bold woman 

You may shut my social media down 

You may cancel me 

Send me death threats 

But you will leave my family alone 

Leave my friends alone….

I won’t compromise 

I won’t comply 

You can try to talk to me 

At a corner…

It’s not goin to change my mind….

You can use a black friend 

To convince me to stay silent…

I will shake my head no…

I’m okay 

Being in trouble….

I’m okay 

with losin friends 

Yes my feelings will get hurt 

But how come it’s a problem 

When the world stands up for 

Black people?

Do you really have to say 

With your actions that 

We’re not human?

I may not be an activist…

I may not be an advocate…

However 

My black poetry give my people 

A voice…raw sound to make them feel 

To make them express, to make them 

Heal without apology….

And you got a fuckin nerve to

Tell me to be quiet….

I’m not afraid…

I’m not afraid of that white man…

If he makes me vanish,

Then he will never know peace 

Anymore 

Even if he sleeps peacefully at night 

He will never know what peace 

Looks like 

Cos the world will remind him 

Of my poems 

Of what I wrote about him 

Of what he has done to me….

People might recite 

My words to torture his ass 

Purposefully…I know libraries 

And bookshops might ban my soul

Cos of this truth…truth quivers

Evil souls…

You can’t really quiet me

I’m in someone’s heart….actually 

I’m restin myself back in the 

Back of your thoughts…

Yes I’m hauntin….

You want me to be quiet….

I won’t…

I never will…

You may try to find ways to 

Get rid of your mirror 

Though 

It’s still there….

Cos the world is still talkin…

You can ignore 

Cover your ears 

Walk out 

Yet I’m still speakin….

You can never tell people 

To stop discussin 

About me and my black poetry 

Cos there are facts over deep emotions…

You can yell 

You can shout 

Throw a tantrum 

I don’t stop 

My spirit doesn’t stop…

Use voodoo magic 

And I still don’t stop….

You know damn well 

Racism white supremacy 

Murders black people….

The system is still killin 

Black bodies everyday 

And I should shut the fuck up…

Absolutely not….

A husband didn’t leave his wife

 A husband didn’t leave his wife 

A husband didn’t leave his wife…

But he did….

He stepped out and fuck another woman 

For a while…

He told his wife he’s goin to leave her 

And when he left, he misses her while 

He’s with his mistress….

After divorce 

Now he’s talkin about his ex wife 

Bringin her up in conversations

Yet I thought he was happy…..

I thought he was free…

His sidechick is different….

She’s not the kind of woman he thought 

He wanted….

She doesn’t remind him important things 

Like goin to the yearly doctor appointment 

Or go to your daughter’s ballet show…

She didn’t wash his socks or fix his coffee the way he likes….

She works to pay half the bills with him

And this other woman was not his wife…

Every time he mentions his wife’s name,

His  new girlfriend got pissed off….

He worries about her….

This is his consequence, he chose to walk 

Out cos she didn’t give him lovin at home….

So he went outside his marriage 

To take care of his hard dick….

Apparently his dick is more important 

Than being faithful to his wife…

Now he got his so called 

“dream girl” 

How’s that goin for him?

Are they still fuckin?

Or not?

He pushed his guilt way 

down into his bones….

Hidden 

Til he finds out his former wife 

Starts thrivin 

Without him….

She moved on to another man

And this time 

He treats her like royalty….

The old husband didn’t like that…

Why is he worryin about him?

Did he forget that he stepped out?

He doesn’t get to want her back 

After he fumbled her….

So his girlfriend 

Ya she left him 

It was lust anyways….

So when a husband didn’t leave his wife,

Well he didn’t actually leave her 

Cos after divorce 

After settlin in with his sidepiece 

Things weren’t the same….

It wasn’t peaceful….

His girlfriend didn’t do wifey duties…

All she did was ridin his dick….

Like I said 

She never remind him important things 

To do…

She didn’t cook his favorite meals…

He asked for a playboy babe….

He asked for sex…sex with another woman….

Universe told him to 

Be careful what you wish for….

Be aware of your words 

It might manifest….

He shouldn’t complain 

He shouldn’t feel desperate 

He shouldn’t think about 

His ex wife who loved him deeply…

That quiet is too loud 

Ain’t it?

He did this upon himself…

And this is what I mean By 

A husband didn’t leave his wife….💔💯©️Kai C. 8-11-26
