Black Cycles

Original poem by LaVita Ru.

.

Black on black crime

.

Black paint on grey concrete

Red blood on black prongs

Black speech

Preach Black, preach

Act Black

Be Black

Reach Black, reach

Black is Black

.

Is that really all we is, is that?

No, No slack

.

Near tears

Black ears, hear of lost peers

See clear

Black fears

.

Cornbread crumbles

Unity humbles

Dance with Black face

Black beat

Black race

Black on Black

Black with Black

Black in Black

Black is Black

.

Is that really all we is, is that?

Black just Black.

.

In Honor of African-American History, I pay homeage to all the Ancestors that fought and prayed and died for change- so that the generations that followed would not have to endure the same fates. Our ancestors wanted us to be more than a stereo type, a number, statistic, a void and it seems that we are begining to realize our self worth again, Ase. .I also want to acknowledge all the world changers and shakers, that are still breathing and think and creating today.

Someone somewhere right now, is doing something great that will be identified as historical in our children's future. Even you and I are making history with every new day we wake up. How will you change your part of the world today?

Peace & Love
