MASTER SOLD MY BABY

CATEGORY

life

Views: 175

Boy was only five years old.

Master had him sold.

said, *****HE FETCHED GOOD GOLD******.

But only five years old.

"He needs his Momma each day".

Just to love and say hay.

Other MASTER needed a good boy.

Get cigars - shine shoes - no toys.

****master had done this before****.

By the hand,crying, out the door.

BUT - that is the law.

His property - for - evermore.

Came on that ship.

Be good - or - the switch.

But only five years old.

My baby, again, sold.
