there’s~
no sun today
Tomorrow ‘s
sure to be
the same
Another prince
another queen
another king
has died
children bare witness they shed tears they mourn being born
a mother cries . . .
she cradles
her firstborn's head
the blood trickles
from a hole
made by
musket fire
down her bosom ~
to settle
in her womb
she cries
until
her ducts
run dry
women . . .
bow their heads
in solemn prayer
for husbands
and lovers
gone too soon
her heart beats
a rage
no one fathoms
the devil . .
has taken
her heart
this day
she holds her head
and screams at the sky
T H E R E ‘ S N O G O D .. !
today she walks away
from her religion
the one prayer
she begged of god
he denied . .
h e r s o n i s d e a d
The sky’s overcast~
thunder claps
for a prince
m u r d e r e d . . !
like Y'shua
Why Hast Thou Forsaken Me . ?
and from the skies
this day
The heavens
cried . .
N I G G E R . . !
s c a r s , , ,
worn on bloodied backs
like tattoos gained at war
dance
scream
fester
ooze
to the melodies
of the whip
and
to the sting
of the stick
nothing you do shall break me
I can't breathe~
and still I know I will not break
y o u c a n k i l l m e
my pain is nonnegotiable
it's not
for you to take
I Would Not Succumb
I’m
