♪a white slave owner struggles to emancipate his mind♪
“A private faith that does not act in the face of oppression
is no faith at all.” —William Wilberforce
grandfather owned a thousand slaves;
now he and they sleep in their graves.
he was their master, they his knaves;
they had no rights, he had no wrongs.
how oft they sang their mournful songs,
confused by cruelties and throngs
of passions they could not resolve!
high whites, low blacks the chains involve;
short nights, lame...

MISCONCEPTIONS BEHIND THE SCENES
There comes a time when we have to change the dimensions of our sight, as we evolve and elevate with the sounds and smells and taste and touch and feel and see things, for what they are and not what we wish them to be due to the misconception of lies. For you ask who's lies am I preferring too? Well let's take a leap out on faith and trust, the mere subconsciousness of your mind eyes, as you step back into time of long ago but never forgotten by the elders before there was ever a YOU OR I. Do You Remember the stories told of long ago pass down from generation to generation of the darkness,...

Under Advisement, OverDone
Plastered wit priorities,
Squinting for the daylight and
ol'fashioned flashbulbs alike.
we never were who we knew we were, but
you
never settled for whatever we were, And
there'in lies the silly pity (of regret) to end
one's life in.
Can you feel joy in loss?
Of course that'd profoundly inappropriate,
and contrary to the laws of human
development.
But thy secret is safe unto me, (who knows not
what he done,

Echo
Recently voices started calling out to me
Echoes from the past that were fighting for equality
They ask “Will there ever be unity,
Or will there always be hatred toward the colored community?”
I wish that there was an answer that I could give
There’s so much going on in the time that we currently live
The hearts of many with so much angst and unrest
And there are those who don't get why we fill the need to protest
It started with slavery, that ended, but then came Jim Crow
Separate but equal is what was said but it seems it was all for show ...

Free At Last...Thank God.... Nope, Still Waiting Martin
Give us war or give us peace
Does it matter who owns the lands our feet now lease
We greet with our eyes
Behind veils we mentally bow to our government’s perpetuated propaganda and wicked lies
We raise our fist to laws mandated to renounce equal rights, visions of love, a drought here on earth not deemed a necessity from above
Bullets aimed to kill without a worry or care
Colliding with the ‘bombs bursting in air’
My Fifth Amendment means nothing to me in the dark
A badge, a Taser, point blank range...
