washing-ton machine engaged
spinning dry the goal right now
because agitation is making waves
and now the permanent press has arrived

delicate cycle this and that
no bleach needed
and the softener is already in the detergent
rinse is an oxymoron

drain the tub later
the waters will soon will recede
they had nuthin to begin with
they got nuthin to lose

so what’s the big deal
they’ll just get dirty again
they’ve got domes for homes
and the white folk are off the roofs
