Every body wants a revolution! Something to fight for Something to say I belong to some… A struggle of what’s right A fight for what’s wrong
In memory of Rosa L. Parks Freedom. You carried that banner For us all And for all of us you stood
in memory of Lisa 'Left Eye’ Lop… In hopes that your sleep Will be the best ever A sleep that’s eternal In hopes your soul be at rest.
No matter the distance Between us in miles, No matter the lifespan, Spread all the while. No matter the challenges,
for in memory of Gwendolyn Brooks You inspire me And touch my very soul Setting my heart and mind free Making poetry valued like gold.
I am trippin’ off of you And the things that you do, And the way you talk, The way you talk, Baby it’s such a delight
I am a man– No matter the color No matter the race No matter the time or place I AM A MAN!
Sweet as honey That’s what you are to me And even more than words to say To have you near every night and d… That’s the way I feel about you.
(to Starry) Up Above

Life goes on The mistakes are gone Times of remembrance are past The clock ticks on and on. I was born, I lived, I die,
a social commentary Among the vast of the sea and land Where a nation is born, Where a nation arises from the ash… Upon other large shoulders.
o write a verse poet, to kinder the soul, to soothe it so, until we can feel every verse put to paper,
Soothe me Groove me Making my nature rise Even in four-part harmony, As the music rocks me to sleep,
I am thankful! God gave me another chance To live, to love To learn, to be free To believe in a God I serve,
