Yes, I said it

Meant it, too  

 

That the son of God

Might look like me and you

 

Where is it written?

Tell me the truth

 

 

There never was a story told,

Show me the proof

 

 

What manner of man+thinking  

Might that take...

 

For this to be made truth,

You might ask  

 

With hair like wool

And skin like  bronze

 

Patient, unassuming

Slow to anger

 

Fair of mind

 

These are attributes, not far removed

From those you might expect

 

From a Brown man

 

Or at least,

Darker than tan

 

But once

 

You might have been caught

Taken against your will

 

Bought

Like cattle, put on the stage

 

Had a buyer check your build

And your teeth

 

Gave you a slave bible

Although you were forbidden to read

 

And to, A person calling you a slave

Having a Black/Brown master 

 

Might have been(AHEM!)

A bit far to reach In light of their actions,

 

Perhaps even Beyond belief?

Would you. Could you?

 

 If, true Would it give you grief?

Or Would you take it in stride

 

Are you with it That through God

All things are possible(Wink, nod)

 

C2  

The ever loving, Never ending,

NOW, As we have Forever known it...

 

 REQUIRES

 Sacrifice To continue to be made 

 In its inevitable rise...

 And now the payment

 is due...

And we say it LOUD, C2!: Ur! Chaldees! Hamites! Cush! Egypt! Mizraim! Ethiopia! Falasha! Shulamit! Canaanite! Alkebulan! If only we would go back to the Book and read between the lines! Thanks, C2. Truth may be hidden; but can never be buried. HIs-story can never be Ourstory! Peace and Love, M'Lowe
