Post-Modern Minstrals: White Male Artist Hires A Black Actress To Portray His Fictional Black Woman Artist

real or imagined, lyrical, 

literal, euphemistic, financial 

symbolic and/or metaphysical ~

to pillage and plunder Africa;

steal Black bodies; conquer & command 

~ { [ the elastic soul spark of Black women 

be Pygmalion'ed - extracted & siphoned 

into fragile glass vials - jammed 

into molds~ served like jello, wine or 

fired into reproductive vessels ~ ] }

this has never been problematic for Whites

except when any discussion of their right 

to do so disrupts their center 

or perception of self as perfect.
