White, straight, male, upper middle-class, west-born...
the most privileged fuck this world has ever known.
Never had to be afraid to walk home alone at night,
or escape being rounded-up and smashed, head against a wall.
Invincible! Questioned by no one.
By default! Winning with unearned runs.
When obliviousness is norm
in entitlements revolving door:
Revolution lies in language, attitude and behaviour.
Expectations to ignore
disenfranchisement galore
and otherness is to deplore.
All dat he wants is to play some ragga, but he's a white boy.
Da white man he came, call himself civolised,
imposing his class, his race and all of dem lies.
Addiction to adrenaline, addiction to rules,
emotional blockage and snobbery too,
da face of the banker, the judge and you.
