Capitalism’s the problem, not Kaepernick… NFL: Naked Fascist Labor (‘Relations’)

32 mastuhs, versus 3 in
the N-word industry
fielding cyanide-tongued Toms.
32 money-worshipping
medieval men with miniature
Hearts—constipated souls:
Extorting broken bridge and
train towns;
Extorting shuttered school,
cardboard colonies;
Extorting poisoned water
protectorates
with threats of moving
Plantations—unless
cities break themselves, erecting
gilded edifices to knee-
shattering, shoulder-
separating, tricep-tearing,
convolution-scrambling collisions

32 mastuhs, versus 3 in
the N-word industry
fielding cyanide-tongued Toms.
32 money-worshipping
medieval men with miniature
Hearts—constipated souls:
Conspiring, sending
“Hush, boy…” messages to
bucks on all plantations:
Black Lives Matter—
to bottom line—on cotton
fields, football fields, N-word fields
Mute Or, spoutin’ nappy-headed foolishness …

32 mastuhs, versus 3 in
the N-word industry
fielding cyanide-tongued Toms.
32 money-worshipping
medieval men with miniature
Hearts—constipated souls:
Bull-rushing Blackness,
strip-sacking dignity,
shutting down legacies…
White balling a buck for
bucking “…rockets red glare,
Bombs
bursting in air…”
Profits pulverizing concrete,
Incinerating family trees,
in the stench of rotting
arms and legs beneath rubble

32 mastuhs, versus 3 in
the N-word industry
fielding cyanide-tongued Toms.
32 money-worshipping
medieval men with miniature
Hearts—constipated souls:
Craving robots, breeding brain-
washed bucks off combine blocks;
Pacifying home-jersey mobs
on beer IVs,
stuffing their pizza holes…
Mobs a keg away
from lynchings and
pogroms, tattooed in their DNA—
Pawns keeping the 1% safe from:
Solar Panels, Single Payer,
Free Education, Affordable Housing for
All…
