Knees have been scraped…
And lost dignity overcomed!
Challenges have been faced,
In sight of naysayers…
And things attempted,
Can now be said were done!
What next awaits the fate of one,
As the Sun continues to rise…
With more surprises yet,
To delight, excite and come!
‘What next? ‘
Questions the champion pacing.
Who now slowly strolls…
And ages in a process no one controls.
But no one that dares,
Prepares to ‘Stop! ‘
The sun may set!
But not grab hold,
Of this run that’s bold…
And defiant!
Some learn what they do in school.I did too and it felt like a waste of my time.Since I’ve known in my mind…What now seems like forever.I’ve always been connected to what it ‘Is’I’ve always known who it is I am.And often I have felt out of place…On foreign shores!While others debate racism…Self hatred and…
Inside my pockets.Inside my pockets,I play with loose change.While in my mind deciding…Whether to make a snowball,From fresh snow.Or should I go sit in my car…Kept running.I remember as a child,I would love the snow.I would love to make and throw snowballs.Not thinking of my hands.Or the cold!Or being chased.I take my hands out from…
Enjoy slotting people into categories.I’m overdue to try that too!Let’s see from which perspective,Shall I choose.Let’s see…These are the same people,Now bleeding economically.They have been conditioned,To ‘assume’ they are ‘better than’ most.And depicting ‘everyone’ non-white…minorities!I overheard someone from Liberia, Africa…Tell how some ‘Americans’ visited his country.And labelled them ‘minorities’.Yes!And paraded around like royalty.They are the…
That lightens the burden,Of becoming victimized by misunderstandings.It is with clarity that one becomes free of doubts.Or comprehending something unintended…Someone takes and tosses about.Most times gossiped from mouth to mouth.The search for clarity,Identifies aspects of honesty.And truth uncovered involved in anything…Can solve dilemmas.And expose deceitful offerings!
Not a liability,Anyone can find to tolerateAs companionship.To occupy one’s mine,With time limited!I have had that in abundance before.And have donated my own ignorance,I had once ignored…Pursuing uselessness.I seek something…Recogizable as divine.Not a liability,Anyone can find to tolerateAs companionship.To occupy one’s mine,With time limited!And now that I find…I have left that kind of youthful foolishness…
Intimidate by shocking.Your destiny becomes the one that’s blocked.Reduce those to tears and fears.Make it clear the greatness of your power.And every hour the ticking of the tock that is heard…It is you that becomes devoured!
