"I'm going to tell it like it is. I hope you can take it like it is." -Malcolm X


Follow your heathen god,

The one who caused you anger

And the one who caused you anguish

And ignore the compound of insanity.


Follow your heathen god,

As if he has not spit in your water

And left you breathless.

Your self destruction.


Follow your heathen god,

As if he hasn’t plucked your feathers.

As if a dove can feel safe

In the grasp of a serpent.


Taste the fruits of life,

I hope you can quench your thirst.

But heed caution,

For these roots are deep.


Fear your heathen god.
