Image for the poem Ms. Faith Liberty

Ms. Faith Liberty

Imagine if Lady Liberty had African ancestry
The image of she may be viewed differently
A pic of consistent grief could be her reality
Due to her fallen sons & daughters in history

Even she may take a knee instead of a stand
A brand new example of a Kaepernick fan
A woman on the porch whose dropped her torch
Arms visibly weiry and now she needs support

Her heart broken like the promises of this land
She's no longer seeing any footprints in the sand
How can one stand when legs of Faith become weak?
Seek the guidance of the ancestors by digging deep
