found my voice on a death bed
 got up and walked instead of
slept there could've been the end
 snaked by a friend who became
a foe used to be like a bro to me
 you know like family invited to
the table to eat moms neck bones
 posing for pictures in the kitchen
was writing a book wasn't gone
 tell all grew up and fell off
foot ran over when the wagon
kept rolling got stories for days
 figures in the grave too many
bodies to count it's a dirty game
 and a dirty shame to dig it up
I was born in Watts moms live
 in Compton like a undertaker
death ain't nothing but
 a business welcome to
a final destination what's my
 occupation I solve problems
hire me you won't have none
 weapon of choice is no weapon
formed against us beat all the
 odds waged against me if
you really love me then kiss me
 those who hate me wish me
dead heard it from the grape
 vine the spirit won't let
nothing sneak up on me
 swear to God I'm not lonely
patience is my pedigree
 check the catalog I'm a
story teller I don't tell all

I hear you Mask Poet. Remembering my days of teaching at New Design Charter before transferring to the battle here in Virginia! Left the Gulf of Mexico in Texas, to spend several years with SNCC in the deep South. Then off to spend nearly two decades in Jamaica before returning to CA to spend two and a half decades before coming to the "Southern" East Coast to journey on in the struggle with my "Poetry Vibe" family! Peace and Love. I pray that one day our "unmasked eyes" will meet each other with that, "I know you!" Peace and Love, my Brother.

Patience is a Pedigree, love that. It takes might to rise up above and within the environments we are raised in. Very good
