how do you
know
whether to
or not to
lift your sights
to the power
...within, you
power
is inherent to who
you are...
not just how
other people see you
true power
belongs...
to the strong,
yet meek
giving
POWER
...to the people
isn't just a
black lives matter
rallying cry...
it may be the only way
for your family
...not to die
whether,
or not you may be
black or white
doesn't matter to the person
with their boot on your neck
won't represent the police...
they will not care about your grief,
beliefs,
your church, religion...
how often, even how much
you tithe
what food you eat,
what colors you like
whether, you believe in god
...or money
what kind of car you drive...
your families wants and needs,
what kind of music
brings out the best in you
or under what conditions
make you ...feel
most alive...
remember,
Gill Scott Heron
with his, now...
ancient cries
the revolution,
will... not
be... televised
