I was thinking

The Witnesses showed up this morning offering to show me the path to heaven. I slammed the door. No way it’s taking me alive.

I was thinking I’d become trans as a vote of solidarity. Was informed that’s not the way it works. Wish my legislators were as well informed.

I reached the top of the stairs and met you in the hallway as you exited the bathroom. You looked up and smiled. Made my day.

Well I was all in on “Black Lives Matter.” But now I’m wondering ‘Do they? ‘ Black kid shows up at your door, you shoot him and your defense will prolly be ‘Stand Your Ground’. And that’s likely to work. WTF!

Which brings me to Jayland Walker. Why did you run , you dumb ass? You’re black? Right? You gotta know running from cops is potentially fatal. You on drugs? Delusionally thinking your skin is white?

Jayland shouts a retort from heaven: “Fuck No, Cracker! I’m well aware of my skin color. My perspective is ‘Run and maybe get killed or surrender and surely get killed ala George Floyd’ “

Whiteness is a powerful drug. (Capehart on NPR)
