Black Poetry : Lead On Black Man

Lead on Black man
take us through the journeys you've been thru
literally and figuratively let all see every leg
of the trek creating the man that is you
Lead on Black man
where understanding is not the fashion
more hip to look out for self
than to feel what's real in compassion
Lead on Black man
Give us a glimpse of each battle scar
Reveal where they are
and why they still may remain raw
from each slice of injustice you saw
Lead on Black Man
Speak on about unity
and why it's more important
than individuality
Not to say we don't each have a voice
But we usually have that choice
to agree to disagree,
don't we?
If we had more than
an inkling or two
about what created the man
that is...you
Mouths would be agape
Totally astounded
at all the gut wrenching pain
yet, you remain grounded
firm in the belief that
no matter come what may
we'll be in unison
and you'll guide the way
Lead on Black Man
As much as I have loved you yesterday
I'll love you even more today
And continue into the morrow
throughout life's joy
and yes, all the sorrow
Lead on Black Man
With a wise mate that believes a Black Man can do anything!
Peace!
