BLACKING MAN WALKING (Part 2)

CATEGORY

Views: 131

 

From the bleeding stolen womb of Africa to the dried navel of America…

Black Man Walking->

From the belly bowels of slave ships to auction blocks and cotton fields…

Black Man Walking->

From the plowed rows of cotton fields…with bloody keloid bent backs…

Black Man Walking->

Along the blood-stained roads of the shadows of death…fearing no evil…

Black Man Walking->

Passing Klu trunks, Klux branches, and bloody leaves of klan lynching trees…

Black Man Walking->

Passing a cracked liberty bell, skewed scales, and raised confederate flags…

Black Man Walking->

Stripped of dignity, pride castrated, and denied the pursuit of happiness…

Black Man Walking->

Tried, convicted, and sentenced to death for the crime of being born black…

Black Man Walking->

Through the grinding gangrene grief of abject bigotry and American racism…

Black Man Walking->

Glad and rejoicing—waking each and every day on the death row of life…

Black Man Walking->

Slapping fascist knees off of his neck and breathing the air of liberation…

Black Man Walking->

With his Black Queen at his side, back, and often out front urging onward…

Black Man Walking->

With warrior spirit…in storms of oppression…soul anchored in the Lord…

Black Man Walking->

Struggling onward…wearing the breastplate of God…anointed with His oil…

Black Man Walking->

Albeit racism’s rejected stone, he’s always God’s cornerstone of humanity…

Black Man Walking->

With Sisyphean-mountain triumph…eyes ever on the promised prize…

Black Man Walking:->
