What do we….as black people, do to receive our equal rights How do we stop this unjustified endless, and on-going fight No matter what we do to change this never ending sequal it seems as though we will never win never be considered as equal It dosen’t matter what path we take going in any direction we always end up […]

CHECK YOURSELF

Don’t keep hidden….what’s locked inside and let lifel take you for a mysterious ride The ride is long and if your not strong you will surely end up where you don’t belong Don’t let what others say pull you in because your love of self is so thin you’re just fighting a battle that you can’t win If you run […]

A CHOICE OF COLOR

I’ve searched and I’ve searched but try as I might I’ve yet to find the difference between black men and white I’ve looked the world over at every human kind and not one physical difference was I able to find.

A MID SUMMER’S DAYDREAM

. Where flowing streams trickle. Where bridges are crossed. Where flowery grasslands meets water and moss. Where young woodland creaturestraipse thru meadows and trees. Where bees and butterflies play tag in the breeze. Here you will find me quiet and serene As nature unfolds to a mid-summer’s daydream. Sometimes things just pop up in my head and have to be written […]
