I love the sound of freedom
They hate the sound
They hate what it means
They cover themselves in dark white cloth
They organize tribes against it
They hire police to stop it
They imported them to **** whenever they wanted
They got drunk and miserable and numb
Their white wives protested oppression by torturing and slandering my brothers and sisters
They hate with exterminating thoughts
They hate how I got here
They hate that it is out of their control
They hate the sound of black and white *******
They hate how I was created
They hate the sound of my family
They wanted us to be oil on fire
On top of polluted water
They hate the sound of mixed parents *******
They have to wake up and imagine what it feels like
To be free
To be human
They hate the sounds of pleasure as it mixes uncontrollably
They hate our *******
They would rather the sound of us twisting in agony in trees
Like Nina’s strange fruit
They hate the sound of us ripping through their police
They hate the sound of us breaking down their barriers
They hate the sound of us being better role models for their children
They hate the sound of us owning America
I love the sound freedom

You call them slave ships
Lurking through slavery

Fell asleep

And its throat was slit

Escape from Liberty
http://www.amazon.com/Escape-Liberty-Elan-Gregory-ebook/dp/B01B8XQYBG?ie=UTF8&keywords;=elan%20gregory&qid;=1459178234&ref;=sr1_1&sr;=8-1

About my new book // Escape from Liberty

Birth is the experience we have, witness, and feel that is closest to where evolution rests. If it could be measured. I think the way birth is experienced and the proximity around it is the most important focus when discussing ontology and evolution.

“Escape from liberty,” refers not just to the getting out of the psychology of liberty but reshaping how that has affected what birth means in society.
A society can only be as good as it functions around birth. Since liberty has shaped what birth means in America from its beginning. It has a lot to do with why the reality of freedom is misunderstood.

Actual freedom and the possibility to experience it has been preserved by those that brought it with them. The African women taken from Africa preserved the evolved function of birth in American Society.
Liberty in terms of birth means that it is the defining authority on society. In evolution birth is the defining authority of society.
By proving that birth is not meant for liberty by escaping slavery to freedom, African American women gave a template to escape liberty and experience freedom.

The absurdity and genocidal acceptance of declaring liberty while birth for some humans has become artificially designed for slavery is unacceptable. Any American should understand what this means in terms of our sustainability or evolution as humans.
This should be understood more and funded more than any “going green” resource conflict crisis generation.

Im really getting used to the wasting of paper
I try to at the least be nourishing with ink
I had to smile to ask her to dance
Within 2 seconds she could tell it was pretend
They can feel that I was off somewhere else
That I am just an outsider visiting the night life
They can smell how much I have been studying
That I doubted the reality of whiteness from a young age
she can smell the doubt all over me
The echoes are still fresh
coming out of my pores
she can smell that I just denounced whiteness to an audience the night before
her sense of smell is as keen as her gyrating  hips
snakey moves
but you just wait girl
soon it will be even cooler to denounce whiteness
as a mental illness
cooler than it was to create the idea of slavery
those that are hip
will be shaking them to my drums
waiting to hear my deeply rooted words

understanding
how to heal their trauma
noticing the times they can learn
from the times to just listen
and how important this distinction is

then I missed my friends
now
like hot coals glow
on my heart

After I awake
struggle to be
before them
I only miss my daughter
that is where
the emptiness
where my heart
once was beating
but most of all
I miss myself
before I was forced
to miss my daughter

poetry is none other than life
people appreciate in public
the poems that are abstractly nature
more than the ones that describe
how to arise from oppression
its sad  but comforting
because I also like nature
and wish
I could solely
along with my black family
just be human
amazed at the reserve
atleast
I hope thats what it is
because surely you are not
the corruption we were discussing heatedly
back in unbearable silence
far enough from those screaming for help

its factual that we are unsafe in America
how is it you look at me
and ask for the future

gender cannot save us
race cannot save us
money is being used against us
and we make it real

apathy doesn’t need us to know
how it has taken over those
that were proud to be white

I invited you to a rich human progression
that is also where the best of you has come
blackness
nativity
Africa
the pioneers of being so envied
because of our long earned intimacy
with nature
the jealousy
that made colonialism a thing
calmly
genocidally
referred to as whiteness

you were right to be angry
you were wrong to stop

im invested fully in the business
of deconstructing whiteness
and ******* on its confidence
misplaced in humanity
lost and trying to drag us into no where

ethnic on the mic
ethnic on the mic
what is your ethnicity?
“white”
is not an ethnicity
it is a social construct
that means “not a slave”
meant to bring indentured servitude
back into the liberty of white supremacy
caucasian is a made up fairy tale
how can I trust whiteness
when it cares only about not having
anything to do with slavery ?
it thinks it can stop the dialogue
the freedom fight
simply by declaring it is white
that is insane and dissociative
because a very thin layer of reflection
covers everything
and you give it the depth
that you think it should have
saying you are white has no depth
has no soul
has no heritage
no lineage
just the desperation of distancing
oneself from the devastation
genocidal process that it has demanded
no one in the world
other than Americans
can smile and say they are white
then expect silence and acceptance
because only in America were people
forced to be on the white team
and brainwashed to think being white
is an ethnicity
like french
Dutch
German
Swedish
Uneducated nonsense
unacceptable
When asked where I have been
No worries
of course not
no
I’ve been out doing white things
Nothing unwhite I swear
You can ask my friends I was being white
You always catch me at the wrong times
I have recordings
Time stamped
Documented
Notorized
