POEM: WHERE ARE THE MEN? (DEDICATED TO BROTHER TROY DAVIS) (582 hits)


WHERE ARE THE MEN?

What happened to the fearless Brother who stood for something.
Did what was necessary because it was necessary.
Truthful, responsible to His family, to His people.
Strong because He was strength.

Now all we talk about is strong Sisters.
Is a strong Sister the same as a strong Brother?
Do a strong Sister strike fear in the enemy eyes?
Should a strong Sister be on the front line?
WHERE ARE THE MEN?

Where are the men in time of need?
It appears all hope is lost.
My back is against the wall.
Striking in all directions.

Holding on by a thread.
Standing on Truth, Freedom, Justice and Equality.
My foundation is firm but I need reinforcements.
I can't move.

All I can do is hold my position.
I call for help but their is no answer.
I call again, still no answer.
What's holding Me up?
My foundation is firm but I need reinforcements.

WHERE ARE THE MEN?
WHERE ARE THE MEN?
WHERE ARE....THE MEN?

Dedicated to Brother Troy Davis
I don't know you but I feel you. We must not let your death be in vain...
Peace and Blessings....
