(Poem) “Cry To The Black Man”

Black Man… I don’t want to be your mama, or the
one you look up to. You know.. when it comes to being a man, I wouldn’t
have a clue.. So it’s all on you. Now I ask.. Why am I your role model? Because you see
when God made man you were the first model… then he made me
to follow.. hmph that’s probably why he made you taller.
He made your arms more strong… Don’t tell me he did it
wrong. Naw no way… it’s time you take your place. Stand up and present your case.
Because without you.. we losing this race. So pick up your pace.

This poem is from me to you.
