1940's Black Man Vents It's morning and everyone's outside waiting for the truck to pick us up to go to work in the cotton field
In the back of the truck filled with workers, I close my eyes to appreciate the wind that hits my face
I Pray to the Lord that my future children will have a better opportunity to do something with their lives, say f*ck this labor s*it, educate their minds, own some sh*t, travel this motherf*ckn world, learn as much as they can, and escape this b*tch

Vision Killers People that pour all of their energy into destroying your dreams
In expectations of derailing your ideas with negative words that may bring about fear
Throwing around the words such as, "you can't or can not"
In hopes that they'll settle into your ears

Stand By With No Concern Everyone has someone that envies them in some form or way
So be not concerned, live life no matter your status
And let the envyaters stand by, soak up your success, and Hate

Be Aware Of Your Surroundings In these day & times it's wise to be cognesant of your entire surroundings
No matter where you may be, be aware at all times
No one knows when it be there time
Any second, minute, hour, Evil may present itself
To potentially inflict harm onto you in many ways
Be mindful of the tricks inwhich is it's trade
The conniving games inwhich it plays
So to everyone everywhere pay close attention in everyway
For no ones promised to open their eyes on the very next day
BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS

The Art of Poetry To express a pain or feeling onto paper, live or on stage
To be able to reach readers and listeners with the way one put together each sentence, methapor, or phrase
A gift that not many have these days
This ability to pull from ones self and burn a pencil onto a page.

In The Trenches Imagine you are in the Trenches of life
Walking through dark walls on each side
In the distant ahead you can see a light
You become clastophobic with each step
The walls feel as if there closing in
But Faith keeps you moving unitil you reach the end

Don't Blink Be mindful of who you let into your space and completely open up to
For trust now a days, is like a finger on the trigger off a loaded gun pointed directly at you

Watchers In this life,
At times we may have to deal with people full of strife
That sees you only with a negative eye
Their self esteem is low but Intention are high
Spiteful towards you, your status, or the life that you live, or the way you survive
I wonder why some waste so much energy on what's ment for you
Inflammed thoughts when they look at you
Spirit filled with jealousy as hate filtrates their mine
Always worried, concerned with, and all in mine
Pay attention and watch them that solely focus on you with false care
Watch for those that need to look over their own lives to judge and stare
