Broomhilda is Really Sheba, Olivia Pope – The White Man’s Whore
by Sabrina Dawkins
Your favorite Coloureds
and black female celebrities
are weighed down
with the souls of young females
and with long ponytails
as broken horses
with skeleton noses,
eyes circled in Jezebel’s black paint
to accentuate skeleton eye sockets.
The door was opened
by Halle Berry
for “every nameless, faceless woman of color.”
They now hope to win an Oscar
as Heather Hunter did in Monster’s Ball
for being the white man’s whore,
not realizing the award was an inside joke.
It’s such a Scandal
that Olivia Pope
played Broomhilda,
when she was really Sheba,
the president’s comfort woman
for money and by choice.
No real Django would want to rescue her.
Sheba has her arm
firmly around Coldplay’s Chris Martin
during her Super Bowl 50 loss performance,
in which she was a yellow-belly chicken mascot
that did silly things in her gig
like shake her tail feathers
wearing a blonde wig,
then roll over to a balloon inflated with paper.
The white man’s whore. You dig?
And she gave you the finger and 666
in her “Formation” video
to curse her fans, dressed as a witch
so she could sleep in the big house and strip
off her Black Panther costume
and put on her real MLK suit.
Do you know that Calvin Candie
contains CAIN CAIN?
And Moses’ descendants bow to him
to get material things.
And Israel’s daughters
see Calvin Candie’s whores
as idols to be worshiped,
so much so
they got on that elevator
and beat up her husband
even though Beyonce teaches them
how to dress like prostitutes
and become single mothers.
But still they remain
loyal cheerleaders and supporters
like Michelle and Kelly Rowland,
not realizing she burned
in the back seat of hellfire
in “Crazy in Love.”
And she no longer drives her vehicle,
one of Satan’s demons does.
And I don’t envy Sasha,
all the paper and the fame.
All the souls she’s destroyed,
there’s a heavy debt to be paid.
Satan’s whores have it good
climbing Hollywood poles
in the City of Sin.
But the quote by Foxy Brown goes,
“Do y’all realize
what kind of trouble you in?”
