The Counterfeit

A dove, a lilly, and a coconut, heard a “white” person this morning, pounding others and its chest, pounding into heads that their skins mean the best …

“So you are called white too??" they said
"We got to to distance ourselves from you!"

WE doves of the air, lillies of the feild, and sweet jelly nut,
look, you can see
we got nothin to do but be ——  all in all
our whiteness is a perfect situation throughout this creation, looks nice to you like any other beauty —— all in all

but do you ever see dove sneak up and attack
the crow, the canary, the sparrow ?

do the lillies try to kill and have power over
the rose, the tulip, the daffodil?

and your jelly nut, well….it don’t compete nor cause division, just adds to other fruits to  provide complete nutrition….

because we are ONE in creation, all in all

BUT some of you humans DECIDED to be white - claiming/stealing and distorting OUR color and created a CON-cept, an IDEA among yourselves;  a harm to others of your species (and to ours) while thinking yourselves to be the best

and now you are called white too -
We've got to distance ourselves from you!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          

because the “white” that you claim you are IS A BAD ACT IN ACTION !!
It fails, just pales in comparison to that which we are !!!

YES - We ARE white, not an idea - a real color that is just nice like any other
WE JUST HAD TO SAY, TO STRIP YOU THIS DAY - You are not included with us in any good way
You can't be in our company with your false whiteness philosophy!
WE, THE DOVE, THE LILY, AND JELLY NUT:  OUR WHITE COLOR IS OUR COLOR, NEEDING NO OTHER CONSIDERATION, NO COMPARISON

INSANE TWO-LEGGED CREATURES : YOUR CONCEPT IS YOUR CONCEPT - AND THAT’S ON YOU,

And it’s on you so much so that some of you who dont buy it and dont want it, can't escape the infection of it!

WHY WONT YOU SEE WHAT IT’S MADE YOU DO?
NOW THAT YOU CALL YOURSELF “WHITE”,
WE’VE GOT TO DISTANCE OURSELVES FROM YOU !!

YOU HUMANS CALLING YOURSELVES “WHITE” -  YOU ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS COUNTERFEIT OF ALL TIME !!!

…then after they said all they had to say, all in all they started to back away
