Angola never floated
Cotton grows in rows
Chained Black feet pick it
Even as atomic bombs thrown
At LA North Korea glows India hits
China Tehran fucks Jerusalem all while
He is raped in an outcrop supply building
Ain’t this America
Bleeding he wonders does anyone
Love him
Out there
Killah Shark was a member of Hittite Empire Black Men Performance Art group and, among many other projects, is a monthly contributor to Headline Poetry & Press. Killah communicates through Terse Verse. Terse Verse is a very short form of poetry which starts with an impressive sounding question or statement and is solved by a short rhyme. He engages the form in a specific way; weaving personal mythologies with history to challenge the internal, to organically inspire social justice from within.
