As only America can do
the Indians appeared as colored shades of white
pure and uncontaminated
Is it possible that my ancestors changed their skin
while greasing their hair?
Did their pigment slide off after their bath?
Is it possible that their tales were a mirage
as they looked toward the Mason-Dixon Line
while marching West toward Nebraska?
Even the naked amazons were displayed in shorts
lest their brown pricks offend their host
No Black Indians blurred the surrender of Geronimo
in his favored place near the Great White Chief
America must be pure
Keep Blacks far from the History Show
lest the casinos remove their support
justa
too many justas
heard them all my life
justa guard
justa clerk
justa janitor
justa nurse
justa lector
justa jerk
justa nigga
justa clerk
justa boy
justa toy
justa mu-tha
justa thoroughly
some thin' disregarded
soem thin' discarded
a substitute
and nimcompoop
all justas
with no justice
a justa thing
being a justa nothin'
heard it all my life
