[hometext] => I wrote this one a while ago on the first schoolday in february. As i walked down the halls, i saw that the walls were plastered with posters about black history (Feb. is black history month in america), and i felt so utterly disgusted with the emptiness and fallacy of this act (I live in the southern us, where most every white person is a racist) that i was compelled to write this piece.
[bodytext] => What is with you?
You think that your makeup can hide that evil face? You wish you were better, like you used to be. You wish you were special, like you used to be. Have a nice day, my clockwork slaves. Don’t I look pretty today? I know that I’ve killed your baby boy. Don’t I look pretty today? Tell all the grownups what you think. Say I look pretty today.
