Just wondering if I've been a bit too abstract, I'm talking about post-colonialism where Elijah represents those who hold onto the old white supremacist ideals:
-Elijah-
Shuddering in the dead drumbeat
Old Elijah mutes his sanity,
Crumbling the core of his mind
Nightly he chases the dredges into frenzy,
Feeling the fever of the mad kaleidoscopic pulse
Echo in his hard, empty head.
He dreams so well
With a light to shine behind his eyelids
He breathes so deeply
With lungs heavier with more than air
The familiar dirty drug hits his heart
It paints loving words of terror across his skin
He shrieks with pleasure, and some listen
And they almost wish that they shrieked too.
