BLACK AMERICA

CATEGORY

life

Views: 359

if u turn to the news....I can always count on

hearing the blues...

darkest moments us "black Americans" share...

every young black male teen..running the streets

racing against a dollar...

giving up his life...for the green that don't grow naturally

greed fills his mental...

broken becomes his heart...

now its too late...

for him to part...

is it not enough we own..."Black History month"

historically the beginning once was...as our ending

we still live...lifeless to the equation

being drawn in under persuasion...

possession...never completion..

satisfied for nickels and dimes..

Rosa Parks made her mark..

as did Martin Luther king..are we no longer worth

the "I have a dream"?

I turn to the news and another...young black female teen

displayed for another pregnancy..

infant thrown or hanging from a window seal..

when do we reveal..unfit...

cold hearted ...*** the baby daddy not being present..

now days they can't only be blamed...

where's the love we were promised as kids..

the kisses and hugs we lost along the way

has it become our fault...

why do we have to pay..

for the misunderstanding you placed on our hearts..

love the children..

if I turn to the news..

elementary schools & colleges..our safe haven just as

church...

no longer...known as a place to go..

unknown armed men...suicidal bombers

robbing the educational system...

instead of walking across the stage for accomplishments..

they graduated a second chance of life..

this ain't right

WE AS PEOPLE OF ALL SHADES ...YEARS...ETHNICITIES..

WE NEED TO WALK AND TALK AS ONE HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING...EMBRACE THE FLAWS THAT FALL APUN APUN US...

GOD GAVEE UP HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON...FOR OUR SINS..

WHEN IS ENOUGH...ENOUGH???

There will never be enough because the oppressors will never give in... But this was real!
