Upon surviving the strategized
Clever devised signed contract
Escaping without a scratch
Stamped with scars and tats
American of African descent
How I dare my eloquence
To speak slow but out loud
What is a point to a prow
Pushing through a crowd
Sweat clinging to a brow
If there is anything at all to say
Put it in a 250 word essay
Typed in coal black bold font
Standing on a highchair
Hand lifted held up by air
Reaching up for a share
A missing pair to a spare
It’s up there somewhere
Heart racing war raging inside
Pain felt that closed doors cannot hide
Peace is not for the one who has died
No more than seeing eyes is for the blind
Rest is for the weary and the cried
Held up victim of s crime
Don’t know why but time
Slowed down for me to catchup
Still it’s too early to put my vest up
Gave away my best love
For what I had mistaken for love
The conflicts in need of resolution
To the ending there is no conclusion
The check is in many folds
No tares covered in many zeros
Written in squares post dated
Mark of the one most hated
