YO-Americans

YO-Americans

A Poem by Butch Decatoria


Yo.
Fil -Am I am
Tho' that Uncle Sam
Is a pilfering kind of uncle,

I still believe in Love
Of Freedom rides
Of Lady Liberty's symbolic
Light
Burning brightest
A united flame...

Yo! Bro'
There's no need (yet so many do)
Have - nots hafta
Feed
All Walks
Long Roads
Home.

The seeds will sprout
Great roots of evergreens
When we quench every thirst
With poetic Justice
Logic / Science / Reason
Truth.

Yo!
Now, Says we
No Underground or miners' sky of coal
Cuz hearth is home
Where the heart is strong,
A coat of amor, of many hues

Of cotton--chain gang--rainbows
Of our bodies
Electric / this sojourn railroad
We dance
Deep down soul,
Blues / rhythm/ love on high
Every kind
Spectrums of jungles and light.
Sun tan by Sky...

Yo!
Joe, my bro', is not
No niggah,
G's / Living Proof
Peeps this
White wigs
My All American is multinational
(Hero)

Youthful

World of nations
Toward one republic
(Mans Fire and Golden worth)
The future is moot.

From soot or steep
Great Walls and Mountains'
Sherpa Buddhist peace
Rise from our only Earth
As we bask beneath with all
The bounties of the Sun

We are Sam / I am
And we are
One
together
Here the same
We are
American gnomes
As for me, half breed
Filipino
O-oh
No shame in my game.

Yo! Americans

Be Thankful / you thinkers in kind

Mankind / Human in all our
Suffering,
Sufferage and Tribunes,
From melting pots
A succotash

What kind of American are you?

___________

African American
Native American / Indian American-Hindi
Asian American
Irish / Italian American
Spanish speaking Mexican American
Japanese and Chinese American
Korean American
European / Candian / French American
Siberian / Slavic American
Middle Eastern / Arab American
All American Russian / Serian American

A cohabitat of all of us.
(A world of beautiful Mutts)
