“NOT KNOWING YOUR NAME”
How do you hold your little brother and hope he doesn’t die,
and remained strong being so small and refuse to cry.
God cannot be found in moments like this,
and death has a way of adding you to the list.
Resting on the memories of a day you want to forget,
and cursing God every moment you was a part of it.
I hope I never see a little child carry a small child,
I stare at this sad picture for a little while.
I hear a dying echo of a distant memory,
and in the picture of death is all I see.
I begin whispering softly, “I wish you were my own,”
so as your father I could take you back home.
A song of life and death is in my poetry,
praying whatever God you believe in can see.
Looking at eyes that can never tell a story at all,
have me wishing that I could create you a smile.
You take a vow of poverty because you were forced,
being little black and beautiful without a choice.
Feeling like a mental typhoon has taken everything away,
yet knowing in reality, you have to stay.
And corruption on the upper level has KILLED your family,
dealing with white supremacy hate for humanity!!Â
A younger generation cannot imagine this type of pain,
as rap music makes them forget about our ancestor’s pain.
The mindset of the younger generation become silence in the night,
as their history become a subject, they don’t like.
Drowning in the shallows of a past not long ago,
is a moment in history everyone should know.
I no longer care if society hates my poetry,
because, I know that history can repeat itself you see.
Blinded by you ignorant you believe history had no pain,
RAP with your pants hanging low without SHAME!!
My infinite needs are to understand pictures like this,
violent tendencies in my poetry I never miss!!
Tragic world in ignorant madness screams out loud!!
That’s why every verse is writing about the MATRIX I am proud.
I can’t help but get lost in the sadness of a child with a child,
teardrops begin to form instead of a black and beautiful smile.
I will never forget about my past history all the same,
writing poetry to remember you not even knowing your NAME!! …(WRITTEN BY THE AWAKEN ONE………….ASE!!)……..Written By: PATRICK HORNSBY…… All Rights Reserved ©®U…/06/02/2018.
