CONSCIENCE

You steal another life

What do you feel empty joy

He wasn’t just a body

He had a soul

He had family that loved him, a future goal

What does a human life mean to you

Nothing at all

You hunt in packs, gutless act

What do you gain from taking a life

How do you sleep at night

Sitting in the dogwoods

Watching auburn flee from the woods

Hurrying, scurrying down foot dirt trails

They take their leaves

Do they think their escaping somewhere?

Draping brambles and swimming in brooks

Stealing the breeze these little natural crooks

Hide and go seekers without any peepers

Bob Marley sang the words emancipate yourself from mental slavery

None but ourselves can free our mind

 

We need to educate ourselves with our black history

So many inspirational people unspoken

In our past

We have inventors,  doctors, civil right fighters

So many who triumphant are not mentioned

Black history month

Down past the

vacant mill

where the raillines

run crazy wild.

Where the willow tree

refuse to bloom

and the wind's 

an orphan child.

Looking at crimes from the past
I dread on the reasons
We seem to have cast
Our world to a fire
Ending with a blast
Humans are nothing
But a destructive mass
When we all end we shall look back
We shall laugh
At the things we have caused
The hurt from past

Sun shining through my window

Wake up with a smile

As my mind clears

From the fog of sleep

Reality returns

The sun shine turns to rain

And the pain in my heart

Never devalue yourself

Don’t  be  treated less than your worth

You are a ebony princess

And should be treated no less

Your body is the only thing

That is truly yours

So treat it with the up most respect

On the wrong road of self destruction

Given up before they’ve even begun

No hope given, think all hope is lost

Lonely and confused

Given no role model to follow

No incentive for tomorrow

No reason to change

Past the bullshit of the twisted logic

It

She gathered up the meaningless baubles

Stupid

little

And found the metal trash can

Courage dies within humbled blood

Honor commands its mortal silence

Tribute to Yahweh deed

The white cometh,

Raised up of skin

Floats of souls passing

Honor for honor

Death befriends

Ribbons of valor

Camouflage in a flower
