Just in case one misunderstood
Ground on which this patriot stood
Look up the town called Rosewood
“Creepy crackers” could, would, should!
Sunshine State of mind

Another bloody forget-me-not
Thickening, eternal war subplot
Spinning into a fierce FOX—trot

So pithily denouncing our Uncle Sam
For his hypocrisy-demockkkracy scam

Has become infamous for upping the ante
For playing most Black folks andante
By vindicating a rather vile vigilante
Whether by a single bullet hole
Or magically putting millions on parole
For a purge of the voters roll
When a $election’$ to be stole
Too south of the Mason-Dixon line
Blacks may as well be on the Rhine
Or in the crosshairs of Columbine—
Or even in occupied Palestine!
