Cancel Culture

August 31, 2020December 5, 2022 ElRoyPoet

To the left you have compelled speech—The woke generation with their cancel culture. To the right you have censorship—Fake news coverage from the state press secretary. Freedom of expression à la carte,Take your pick, oh by the way,When you get … Continue reading Cancel Culture

Civil Rights Training

August 30, 2020November 29, 2021 ElRoyPoet

It’s not about,If you’re white, red or brown.It’s about what is right and what is wrong.What gives an affluent society,The right to sacrifice an innocent man,So that it can soothe, its collective anxiety?What gives them the privilege,To invade a freeman’s … Continue reading Civil Rights Training

Racism Poems

August 12, 2020April 13, 2023 ElRoyPoet

Racism isn’t a problem for me,Is it for you? So, if it’s not an issue to you,Then how did you become—Such an expert on it? Don’t be knocking it,If you ain’t willing to try it! Is It Privilege Or Bigotry … Continue reading Racism Poems

Patriot Games

July 29, 2020July 1, 2024 ElRoyPoet

If you promote racism,It grows.If you accept racism,It grows.If you neglect racism,It grows;And republican hate mongering will win. If you promote respect,It grows.If you accept respect,It grows.If you neglect respect,It dies;And racism wins, again! Do you want to play,One last … Continue reading Patriot Games

I Need Reparations

July 27, 2020July 3, 2023 ElRoyPoet

I default to living in the past, That way I don’t have to deal with my reality. I’m constantly hashing up your old sins— Those are my excuses! And when I’m feeling over-confident, I travel to the future— Of how … Continue reading I Need Reparations

Lynchpin

June 20, 2020November 14, 2021 ElRoyPoet

Why isn’t there a law against lynching?Every time men with guns get triggered,The brute comes out, and he wants to get even,So he cheats, to teach the object of his hate a lesson.Could it be, his manhood’s in jeopardy,Because he … Continue reading Lynchpin

Protest Lesson Learned

June 10, 2020June 12, 2025 ElRoyPoet

Protests devolve into riots;Thunderstorms spawn tornadoes.Don’t be inciting the snowflakes,And don’t be chasing storm troopers! By: ElRoyPoet © 2020 “(Our founders) created a document that built a representative democracy. Because the idea is: that our elected officials represent us, they … Continue reading Protest Lesson Learned

Why Peaceful Protesters Turn Into Agitators

June 3, 2020June 12, 2025 ElRoyPoet

“Hysteria is an audiovisual contagion. You have to see and hear someone exhibiting symptoms in order to find yourself replicating those symptoms. See it enough, and it becomes you.

Intolerance

April 27, 2020August 24, 2022 ElRoyPoet

All degenerates must be punished.Why?Because disgust trumps tolerance.But,Do to others as you would have them do to you?If,You are a minority, you will be persecuted.Does,The golden rule only save, those who are equal?No,It only saves those who have gold… By: … Continue reading Intolerance

Everybody’s talking, About making it through the storm. But, what if the storm rages on, And the only thing that will save you, Is the seaworthiness of your vessel? If you have a fully stocked yacht, You’ll probably keep afloat. … Continue reading The Perfect Storm

Anticipation

March 22, 2020April 14, 2023 ElRoyPoet

AnticipationIs so hard for me.I don’t know,Where I’ll be going,What I’ll be doing—Or, if I’ll even be free. AnticipationIs a burden on me.I know, I’m just a man,A creature of habit—What I see, I believe.Does it mean,In bondage I’ll be? … Continue reading Anticipation
