You stalk me and chalk me
In your violent imagination ever

As a result

The presence of your scent
Makes me dizzy and pretty much drained

You are sick and making me sick

Barely I can breathe, I can be me

It's freedom you have taken

Which as a 20th century living organism

Got as a birth right....

A word is a dubious thing

Any word can be wrongly interpreted

Same as a smile

The world is a big complicated giant ball

After all we end up fighting for a single word and a single commitment

Why?
Don't they just shut up and be quiet.
This what some say?
Except, don't bite your tongue.
Because some get upset.
Especially, if you a woman.
More so, if you're black.

The world of injustice they very unaware of in society.
They commit similar crimes but get a better time of sentencing.
Don't bite your tongue?

The reality must be faced.
And many minorities got to QUIT being the forgiving race.
Too often we see this.

But don't bite your tongue?
This how we get the truth of folks attention.
Just notice, now they got a comment.

A butcher loses
compassion towards animals,

So as a bully towards humans

You keep saying
You are bad

But, the realty is
You never want anyone
Know you are good hearted

The good in you

Crushed
Powdered
Bullied
Banged
Exploited
Cursed
Played
Tric­ked

By others.

You can't spare another chance

But, keep telling yourself

How bad you are

Rather show your real

Good heart.

Straddling a yesteryear and a new tomorrow
facing many challenges, holding onto triumphs

We hold our breath ready to say goodbye
and open our arms wide with a welcome hello.
