PEACE BLACK CHILD by Anthony L.Waters

poetry:
PEACE BLACK CHILD,
DID U KNOW IT TAKE MORE MUSCLES TO FROWN THEN IT DO TO SMILE,
GOD PAINTED YOUR SKIN THE PERFECT COLOR OF EBONY SO U CAN BE HIS CHOSEN CHILD,
YEAH I KNOW MY FATE,
THAT’S WHY THEY CALLED US NAMES BECAUSE THEIR MINDS WAS TO PERLEXED TO RELATE,
BLACK PEOPLE ARE INCAPABLE OF BEING PENETRATED BECAUSE WE ARE PROMINENT OF HIGH RANK,
PHENOMENAL WITH MANY FLAWS THIS IS THE REASON THEY CHOSE TO HATE,
SO THEY TERMINATED ANY BORN LEADERS WITH A NATURAL ABILITY’S OF BEING GREAT.
peace black child
HAVE U NOT LEARNED FROM 400 ODD YEARS OF PAIN AND SUFFERING BLACK MEN SUPPOSE TO BE THE BEST OF FRIENDS,
MARTIN LUTHER HAD THE DREAM,
WE BEEN BORN FROM QUEENS AND KINGS,
GOD MADE US ANGELS AND THE EVIL ONE WANT TO CLIP OUR WINGS,
SO THEY DEVELOPED DRUGS TO TRANSFORM US IN TO FIENDS,
TO BREAK AND TEAR DOWN OUR OWN AMERICAN DREAMS,
BLACK PEOPLE NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO REST,
TOGETHER WE CAN ENDURE ANY TEST IF WE JUST STAND ABREAST,
peace black child
WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME U HEARD U WAS UNSTOPPABLE,
REMARKABLE WITH AN ECLECTIC STYLE AND A BEAUTIFUL SMILE,
WE LIVING ON BARROWED TIME,
OUR FLESH ONLY LIVE FOR A WHILE,
LET US SHOW THE WORLD THAT WE ARE DESTINED FOR GREATNESS
AND CAPTURE OUR PLACE IN HISTORY THEN STEP BACK AND TAKE A BOW,
FAMILY MEMBERS BEFORE US WENT THROUGH TRIBULATIONS AND TRIALS,
BECAUSE OF THE COLOR OF OUR SKIN,
SO WHY GIVE UP NOW WHEN WE WAS CREATED TO WIN,
YOU IS A LION AND THE ONE THAT CAN’T UNDERSTAND U IS THE PRAY THAT’S IN THE LION’S MOUTH THAT’S DIEING.
SO TO U ABRASIVE,PERSUASIVE,UNPREDICTABLE,OBNOXIOUS CONQUERERS,
YOU AIN’T GOT TO CUT THE KNOT JUST UNTIE THE LINE.
YOUR WORDS CAN NOLONGER HURT ME,
BECAUSE I CAN SORE WITH EAGELS INSTEAD OF FLYING WITH TURKEYS,
SO I CLEANSED MY HEART AND MADE IT SANITARY & REALIZED MY BLACK HISTORY IS 365DAYS A YEAR,
NOT JUST IN FEBRUARY..
peace black child.
peace to the true and living.
