Lost Obama Race Speech
Fragment “Segregation is attachment to
separateness, Which is also the root cause of
suffering...” He
might have said this somewhere or Maybe
he didn’t say anything like that at all. Whether
he said it or not isn’t the issue either, For
they understood that he was saying This
whenever he spoke out from the hue of his skin To
the Desecrated Body of the complexional caste, The
wanderers of the Proper Sphere, Aspiring or groveling through the
merchandise of injustice. It
set a whole other kind of horizon Out upon the beyond. 24 March 2008 [Published in Mantra Winds: Poems 2004-2010. © 2010 by Jim
