"Obama Bandwagon"
  by .Candice.Renee'.


I pledge temporary allegiance
to the black man
currently in office
and vow to make a big fuss
and gush with falsified pride for two weeks

I pledge to dishonour my ancestors
by appearing like I gave a shit 5 months ago about who Obama was
by tooting his horn in front of crowds
singing lift every voice
and breaking down every stanza
of the song
in long
drawn out
afro centric
explanations

I pledge to appear as
a happy african american
who only voted to join the crowd
not because I really believe
this man can change and pave a way
for our future ( our children)
but because the chicks these days
were digging the politics and my boys
said they were voting
So I planned on milking this cash cow
and getting the goods for free

I pledge to be

I pledge to be

a nigga

just as ignorant
as they claim I am
arrogantly gleaming
within my own ignorance

How fucking cool is this!


*im sorry but within the last month
the amount of dickriders on Obama's nutts
have increased and not for all the write/right
reasons...with that said...hop off
if you really don't give a shit stop faking the funk....
I'm happy I voted too and proud someone
(Of any color and/or race) will bring change...

Some yall racist and don't even see it.*
