PO...ET... TRY Legacy


Dear God,



I ask you to see..
for me...
through me...
guide me, bring life through this
PO...ET...try.

Say the words,
repeat them in time
for nothing screams failure...
like not even trying.

Maafa my mother or maybe my brother
all have sisters and are one or the other.
What is the crime? Who shoulders the blame?
Holocaust or disaster publicly inflamed...hung
and always renamed...Toby

Every now and then check reality...
For the enemy of my enemy...
is not down with me...
My Friend.

We call on our past, and we pay homage to Paul
he to persecuted...when his name was Saul...
redeemed
Jesus is Savior Just not for all...

Santeria and Buddhism
Islam and Jews...
Plenty of devices, Diva beckoning for you.
I believe.

Contributions by those who have gone before...
Have not lost in luster...
But who's keeping score?
Systems and numbers

Expansive building plans
Get those green stamps...
Barrack you the man!
O J was too

When you're given enough...
They want to take it from you.
Yes they do
I believe... so do you.

I know you know...don't listen to me...
This is the story, This is our history.
It's been a long time coming...
This is our PO...ET... try
when I tell the truth...
God might see me

Yet in the mean time until that day comes...
Sojourner with us and know like they knew...
Chicken George more than a actor and Uncle Tom too.
Clarence Thomas is a brother...Larry Elder is who?



Black on Black crime...
right now still back then the enemy of my enemy...
is supposed to be my...
I believe...

Murder by stealth...
deemed insignificant...
yes it really matters they believe...
They have all the sense...

Unsung or disrespected...
with who's eye you see?
Formulate your own opinion...
Like Prosser...like me

Like Vesey be awakened
Nathaniel Turners rise from the grave.
Happy is as happy does
It's easier being a slave.

Every man woman and child has a, their own destiny
Yesterday can be tomorrow...
You are history.
Reality?

Be a slave or die free.
This is the truth a Slaves Legacy
I believe...life lives through our PO..ET...try
I believe one day...Change gonna come



Dear God,

for me...
through me...
guide me, bring life through this
PO...ET...ry.



There are influences and references to Latin as well as early oxcidontal thinking as well as self reflection as a black Man in America...Hope you can get to this.

Thank You

You said----Say the words,repeat them in time for nothing screams failure...like not even trying. The words you seek might be contained within your dreams. I usually say a prayer before sleep to find words, but when I wake, I forget them. I can only remember that something amazing happened in the dream. The prayer is: "I fear not the words I shall speak for it shall be given me in that same moments the words I shall say. For it is not I but the power of God that speaks in my defense."

Every man woman and child has a, their own destiny
Yesterday can be tomorrow...
You are history.
Reality?
