Griot Drippings...

 

 

May melodies of success

never cease;

may ebony elevations

never devolve to the least—

ivory delusions…

 

We deserve the best;

our ancestors

built the thriving west.

Why should

our children have less?

 

No vanity, no jealousy;

come spend time with me:

we still family!

 

Tarzan was a deceiving joke;

Tonto means “silly”.

Every egg comes with yoke.

Those movies; what a pity!?

 

Stop the invoked suicide;

fratricide

taking lives of yours and mine.

Lets live divine;

and every little thing will be fine.

Excellent poem. But the last two stanzas seem a bit superfluous.
