FREEDOM OR FREE
By Sister Siebra Muhammad

Freedom or free are ideas to consider
Both has its might and splendor
One you have and one you are
Yet the one you are is the greatest by far

Freedom or free which do I prefer to have or be
To have freedom is an illusion it can be taken away is the conclusion
No matter how small or large there is a potential to be trapped
For under freedom it has limitations as a dome is something capped

Look around there is no end to space
To be free is equal to the line above in this case
I am free are the words written all over my face
How say ye on having freedom or being free
The choice is clear you only have to look to see

To be is to have is divine
Except to have can turn to have not in no matter of time
Do not be mistaken when you have it can very well be taken
Many slaves that received freedom felt they were forsaken

Some tried to go back to their taskmaster
Knowing that hell did not stop their feet from running faster
Why you may sigh on ~ yet what did they have to rely on?
Familiarity brought about complacency that led to contempt
Imagining how having freedom could be followed by thoughts of resentment

You might be thinking that was way back when
There is no difference between today and then
Oh but on the contrary not necessarily
Today if you choose to have freedom instead of being free
Rest assure you will not doubt repeat the former slaves history

Presently there is a cost to be free it is a high price to pay
Paid by plenty of sacrifices most opt to turn away
Could this reaction be due to the large expenditure?
Making it easier to go against ones nature

Before I conclude do not let me elude
To reiterate the power in being free
Is to be and that is everlasting indeed
And to be is forever multiplied by infinity

Freedom or free one you have and one you be
This decision excludes the Almighty
The decision is at hand for all of humanity
Would you rather have or would you rather be?

A hint to you from me the power lies in being free!

YOOOOOOOO!!!

Mom, I think I may have to give you a detox (LOL)

Siebra...the way for us to make lemon aide is to read your FREEDOM OR FREE poen...sorry but in case you have not noticed it your mom has become addicted to that poem.lol...and I am serious...when I don't see that poem for a while I go into some knid of withdrawl of we are not doing enough to get our message of 'YES WE CAN " out there...

SO PLEASE HUMOR ME ONE MORE TIME WITH THIS LAST POEM REQUEST...(smile)

..."i" BELIEVE THAT WE AS AMERICAN CITIZENS ARE SO CONCERNED ABOUT THIS PLANET AS WELL AS THIS COUNTRY THAT WE ARE NOW GOING TO PUT THAT ONE SIZE FIT ALL "WE MUST NOT ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN AGAIN"!!!!!...

INTO ACTION AT LONG LAST...C-H-A-N-G-E IS HAPPENING LONG LAST RIGHT NOW...THANK YOUR TEAPARTY FOR FORCING US TO TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT OUR OWN SELF AND PUTTING THE BLAME ON YOU FOR DEMANDING THAT OUR GOVERNMENT NOT BE AS IT IS RIGHT NOW (BUT BE SAVED) AND WE MUST GET INTO ACTION TO MAKE THIS COME ABOUT...BP FOR EXAMPLE?!?

mY ONLY OPPOSITION TO THE METHOD OF THE tEAPARTY IS THEIR FOUNDATION AND REALITY IS BUILT ON DIVISION OF THE CITIZENS BY SKIN COLOR AND SOCIAL STANDINGS AND POLITICAL POWERS AND NOT THE FULL UNITY OF ALL AMERICA CITIZENS...

(SMILE)

Love, so glad you stopped by and I can cry on your sholders and then go cry on brother Rich's shoulders on how we need the video on this site of the interview of Palin's taht I had to just walk away from my tv ans will only be going back now as they are about to interview both the DNC and the RNC chairs...I had to walk away from this comback against Ran Paul's taling ovr Palin's lead in teh teaparty pollings...any way when she has to be corrected by a fox intrview to help her cover up the major screw she just said, I could not continue listening to her any longer so pleas we need this posting...

It is the program FOX NEWS SUNDAY on fnc with host Chris Wallace the son of the legandary t v news anchor, Mike Wallace . must go now as I just heard M. Steele's voice on the tv. loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool (smile)

Now here is something I hope this law in Arizoan allows at least my race to be able to learn at long last why there must be "probable cause" to even ask for idetifications much less asking for your birth certific or proof you are a citizen (oh and by the way, how much proof of a birth cirtific has cause the erys that our president is not an illegal alien????!!!?)...

any why not too many years ago as this actually happened in the present generation that a young Blackman was standing on the street of a rich neighborhood...because of the color of his skin (he had on no baggy pants, or trying to dell drugs, ect)but the police believed he did not qualify to live in that rich neighborhood so they asked him for his identification..when he refused he was arrested, and his case went all the way to our supreme court...I gather I don't have to say he won...(smile) and, I will repeat if anyone doubt me then go look it up on your computers, P-L-E-A-S-E...lov to all...

ANOTHERE REASON I AM HAPPY THAT NOW MY PEOPLE CAN BE ABLE TO LEARN THINGS LIKE THIS THEY WILL NEVER LEARN ON cNN'S VERSION OF BIA...AND HOW YOU WILL HAVE ABETTER CHANCE OF LEARNING ABOUT US FROM THE POST'S OF GADDY'S (smile)

Lov, I have not yet read youR post about Sharpton and the 7 year old YET, but thank you for posting IT...

WE HAVE GOT TO START TURNING THESE LEMONS LIKE THIS INTO LEMONAIDE AS THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO PROTECT OUR FUTURE FROM FOLLOWING THIS PATH SET FOR US BY THE POWERS THAT BE...WE ARE THE ONLY PROTECTION OUR CHILDREN HAVE... WE CAN NOT EMPOWER THEM UNTIL WE EMPOWER OUR SELVES AS THEIR ROLE MODELS...SELF RESPECT IS A GREAT PLACE TO BEGIN... I CAN HEAR SHARPTON READING YOUR FREEDOm OR FREE POEM AT TIMES LIKE THIS.

(s-m-i-l-e)

ONLY THOSE WHO MANAGE TO GET TO BE WHAT DR. KING SAW OVER THAT MOUNTAIN TOP IS TO HAVE THE POWER TO : ...

COME INTO BEING with the attitude/ demanding no less than) " FREEDOM OR FREE" ...

LIVE AS A HUMAN BEING AND GO OUT WITH THE PRIDE OF HAVING BEEN THE POWER BEHIND THE MEANING OF " FREEDOM OR FREE" is my belief...

"I" am, BLACK BY NATURE, PROUD BY CHOICE...(and am devoted to this poem if one does not know this by now. lol)

thanks my local community leader. (smile)

"YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" (smile)

Hey Mozell, I can see what you (and my English professor) mean about the power that can be seen in a poem... some poetry has a life of their 'own'. (smile)

...or to be more spicific...I have put Siebra's form of poetry there with yours on my part..."I" HAVE SEEN THIS LIGHT. (SMILE)

I figure putting it this way will be much more accepted than, "My goodness this poem is alive"(smile)...and, with that I must kick the poem cold turkey as the saying goes. "yoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"...(smile)
