A lynching of history

 




They don't even wait for the dark of night
to tear down the statues these people claim to hate
The mad Hatters throw ropes around the neck of a history
they hate, which is not their history
a repeated lynching, they do not realize is a lynching
white and black claiming to be social justice warriors
wearing no robes, the way the KKK did
but black faces as if mockery vaudeville shows they despise
pretending to be doing this in opposition to hate
when they are so full of hate they drip with it
not one or at least many having any clue
as to the actual history they are tearing down
people they oppose a Confederate flag
as effective as a red one waved in front of a mindless bull
mob rule in infecting again the way it was
when carpetbaggers just like these came South
to inflict as much pain on the arrogant people
who would die rather than be dictated to
 by self-righteous villains like these.
