Saul Williams - Magnify the Feeling

Hurry up and away!

They'll tell your story
how they want to tell it.

The algorithm
of the sun and moon.

Where the planets were
when I first saw you.

I knew invisible
was visible now

and then
you told me...

the words were
swirling 'round
like yellow leaves.

I saw divisions
of labor. The cultures...

Beware!

Your kind's
not welcome here.

Magnify the feeling.

In a matter of seconds
I had circumnavigated the globe.

The web of awareness
bore down and through me.

Other choices stood out
with those of migration.

I too had crossed borders
yearning for security, warmth,
comfort, anything where I was
not running for my life.

Suppressing my very being.
Restricted by man
and the whims of manhood
magnified by their fractal bigotry
enacted by fear, ignorance, comfort ,
and the privilege of being...
