Introduction—Perilous Rights of Passage
By Charles Sapp II
Exaggeration of the ignorance;
intra-racial wars
with short term memory loss.
We have weakened our virtues
with self inflicted wounds
because of the hatred
of our mirrored self image.
False interpretations of love,
damned by persecuted minds;
we’ve stowed the seeds of selfishness
and our seeds have grown to learn
those bastards are born with egos as fathers
and insecurity as mothers and envy as siblings.
