Painter painting in our land pictures of only white angels Painter painting in our time in shadows of yesterday
Painter, if you paint with love, paint me some black angels now For all good blacks in heaven, painter show us that you care

you're laughing. venus, planet of love, was destroyed by global warming, and you're laughing.
stop believing that you ran out of time to shape yourself into who you want to be! stop believing that its ruined! stop believing you don’t have potential! you are not a fixed being! you have endless opportunities to grow.
You remember what Norman said. “That gold should go to our people.”

your first and most pressing concern should be for the safety of black people. it should be for justice. it should be in making this not just a moment but a reshaping of cultural bias.
this is not a fun little game for you to trot around flipping off cops and making light of a situation you were never affected by. it is not your chance to have a little bit of adventure in the middle of a quarantine. i am speaking as an author and i am telling you to stop fucking making this about katniss or harry potter or whatever - you can be shaped by media, sure, but this is not and has never been about you roleplaying your favorite action heroes. this is not another “disaster of 2020″. this is not a quirky instagram post, it’s not a chance for you to meet up with your friends, it’s not a tactic to get your tiktok trending.
this is about racial injustice. this is about the entire system that is built on that injustice and grows fat on that injustice. don’t get distracted. the police force is not the only systemically racist organization.
black lives matter. and we do not stop until every organization recognizes that and actually acts on it.

Dragging along, following your form Hung like the pelt of some prey you had worn Remember me love, when I’m reborn As a shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
