Posted By: mozell fleming on February 16, 2011 PO...ET... TRY Legacy Dear God, I ask you to see.. for me... through me... guide me, bring life through this PO...ET...try. Say the words, repeat them in time for nothing screams failure... like not even trying. Maafa my mother or maybe my brother all have sisters and are one or the other. What is the crime? Who shoulders the blame? Holocaust or disaster publicly inflamed...hung and always renamed...Toby Every now and then check reality... For the enemy of my enemy... is not down with me... My Friend. We call on our past, and we pay homage to Paul he to persecuted...when his name was Saul... redeemed Jesus is Savior Just not for all... Santeria and Buddhism Islam and Jews... Plenty of devices, Diva beckoning for you. I believe. Contributions by those who have gone before... Have not lost in luster... But who's keeping score? Systems and numbers Expansive building plans Get those green stamps... Barrack you the man! O J was too When you're given enough... They want to take it from you. Yes they do I believe... so do you. I know you know...don't listen to me... This is the story, This is our history. It's been a long time coming... This is our PO...ET... try when I tell the truth... God might see me Yet in the mean time until that day comes... Sojourner with us and know like they knew... Chicken George more than a actor and Uncle Tom too. Clarence Thomas is a brother...Larry Elder is who? Black on Black crime... right now still back then the enemy of my enemy... is supposed to be my... I believe... Murder by stealth... deemed insignificant... yes it really matters they believe... They have all the sense... Unsung or disrespected... with who's eye you see? Formulate your own opinion... Like Prosser...like me Like Vesey be awakened Nathaniel Turners rise from the grave. Happy is as happy does It's easier being a slave. Every man woman and child has a, their own destiny Yesterday can be tomorrow... You are history. Reality? Be a slave or die free. This is the truth a Slaves Legacy I believe...life lives through our PO..ET...try I believe one day...Change gonna come Dear God, for me... through me... guide me, bring life through this PO...ET...ry. There are influences and references to Latin as well as early oxcidontal thinking as well as self reflection as a black Man in America...Hope you can get to this.
