IF ONLY...WHAT...!?

 

 

If only the cruelty

Of slavery had seen

The attention that present day

Pandemonium has gleamed!

Oh, the Civil War was about

The economy too;

Not the evilness of slavery!

But then as now, history

Continues voiding itself

Of ourstory and the disparity

Flocking and nesting

In the hued community:

Oh, if only this nightmare

Was just a dream…!?

Agreed; let us dreams that can be visioned into liberating realities. Then the nightmare simple an awareness of what it is that we need to be focused on doing. Thanks, bang'o lu. Peace and Love, M'Lowe.
