aim to clear
purge me from your gross neglect
make irrelevant what got us here
movement in one big union
creating waves
swimming passionately on the picket line
anchor tethered to a dream
landmarks recognized by heart
steering the course in the dark
past milestone of slave harbors
avoiding sandbank traps
along the swift riversides
intuitively near
so all is what it seems
there you go
in your mutiny
after coming and going with us
in a shared reality
witnessed mutually
whitewashed into an alternate story
here i am
a camouflaged chameleon
without saying i left you far behind
i stand with these that share lives
without resorting to
rewriting history
