Great goals to shoot for, but remember a man is but dust until he is reborn spiritually by the holy spirit. I applaud your work but let's not forget without God we are as dust.
What’s That About
Mercy, mercy me, all around I see
People caught up in the throes of complacency
And everything they do is not to help you
Making you uncertain of just what to do
Friends and family through their vanity
Driving you to the ledge of insanity
Everybody wants… to get...
We the People of Ebony
We the people of ebony
Has written in blood our legacy
Across the pages of history
In our continuing quest for equality
From the cotton fields of slavery
To the lily white halls of bigotry
We’ve fought a racially biased economy
In a double standard society...
Vain and Hollow
The word for the day is patriotic
And is defined by such variety
From courageous to the idiotic
From common sense to sheer lunacy
How much more unpatriotic am I than you
Because I don’t wear a flag pin on my chest
Yet you in your political view
From me my citizen’s...
What in the World
We all claim to know what it is
And how to go about it
But as to how in love to live
Can we do it I doubt it
And if love means you never have to say
To one another you’re sorry
Why do we love in such a way
That causes each other to worry
And why do people who...
The Train From Washington
Sitting and waiting
Patiently anticipating
The train from Washington’s arrival
In this new millennium fight for survival
The government agent said have no fear
The man with the papers would be here
But that was a hundred plus years ago
Is the train coming I...
We Took our Eyes off the Prize
We took our eyes off the prize
As we started to flirt
With blue eyes and ivory thighs
Adorned in micro mini skirts
We took our eyes off the prize
As we embraced the comfort of drugs
Sacrificing our wealth to patronize
And enrich white-collar thugs
We...

Lovely brown eyes, and shimmering hair
Lady I cannot forget
Ebony lady of beauty rare
Skin the color of jet
Lovely exotic Nubian dream
Skin the color of night
Ebony flower of beauty supreme
Vision of sable delight
Sable lady of beauty so pure
Love goddess of the night...
On a Campus Tree
Nooses hanging from a campus tree
Fruits of new millennium bigotry
Watered by racist ideas of irrigation
Overgrowing the sanity of a nation
Southern justice playing the same old game
Of making examples of black patriots to their shame
And if this is what local...
What Patriotism Means to me
Patriotism means to me
A runaway slave dying in a country who wasn’t free
It means union soldiers who fought valiantly
Though black of skin to preserve unity
It means red skin people who died
Helping pilgrims in a new world to survive
It means white people...
A True Legend in his Time
This soulful troubadour I admire
Whose lyrics and music does inspire
Has unofficially spoken out
To all the concepts that spread fear and doubt
He is not only an activist
But a powerful poetic fist
That strikes out against the tom foolery of
Those whose...
It’s Very Necessary
Is February really necessary
As the month we honor black history
Well in the other eleven months the ordinary
Way to go is to deny black people their integrity
Some pondered the need for Black Entertainment TV
Well with all the lily white channels presented to you...
Well Meant Derivatives
When will the media get off the throne
Of Political Correctness and finally move on
To uniting behind our present administration
And make strides towards healing our world and nation
When will our so call Christian society
Get beyond their projected false...
