Ali, the G.O.A.T...

 
As a child with so little understandin'
I had no clue bout "the greatest who's ever been...

I was too unaware, of his standin'
all I saw in ignorant eyes was dancin'
never knew, the art of bein' smart
when viewin' the 'dance of death'
that in the ring, a bein' could
lose their life's breath...

As I gained a bit of wisdom, the
"why's" birthed my WISE-no longer
Dome-Dumb, it became clear
as crystal why he ruled boxing's
Kingdom... So as I've a life long
tendency to do, I observed his life
in review...

Though there were brutal wars, I
saw, I can see the beauty of Ali
through n' through... LEGEND
he was true, even more special
than the world knew...

Like a savant whose visionary
sight's denote...

Muhammad Ali...truly the G.O.A.T...!!


*a perfect example of the 'humanity
of this being' may he rest in peace. *
