BLACK HEAVEN

Dad is the darkness in my skin sin
Is this blackness a curse on me or a blessing
Dad will black men be in heaven, will our fore fathers who could call the rain be somewhere in the sky
Or will they die with the prophecy of metal snake and butterflies

We're black men corrupt, was this imported or is this a capitalistic disease
Is poverty the real nature of Africa or we forgot our God and His teachings
Were orphans in Africa poor and homeless or was this a monogamous disease
Were black children father and mother less or is this a modernization disease

Were black people foolish to organize their society in a way every elder was a minister
We're black people stupid to say that there is a God and he blesses with the morning sun
Were black men backward to preserve their race with herbs
Were black men without God or did God make a mistake me black

Was Jesus important because of the color of his skin or depth of his teaching
For sure God is not a racist or heaven would be scary
Does God even have a face
Does God have use for a skin

I would like to live in a race neutral heaven
Where love is pure and true
I am not waiting for heaven in the sky
I believe in believer's heaven
Right on the back of mother Earth

DREAMY DREAM

What is #life without a lofty #dream A dream that seems so distant But the #heart would not let go The heart would not stop believing Even if it were to stop beating A dream beyond death

DARK

He sits alone in a silent corner of a dark room Trying to make sense of everything Everything is senseless at that moment Life seems to be worth everything Yet everything is worthless in his eyes He wonders why God had to make life in the first place and hopes it is not blasphemy No one wants to step on the toe of God more so those who hope heaven will offer a better home He is ashamed to admit that deep down he longs to be home Home is not this dark room filled with self doubt, anxiety and sorrow Home is where in the least he feels nothing Everyday he tells people to keep hoping but he  has lost all hope The only hope he has is that he will one day hope again Not hope to be rich or famous But to be happy for just a moment He hopes to slip over on his happiest day That is his dream He calculates how best to make his wish come But such days are to pracious to waste on fatal thinking He looks up to God Hoping not to offend Him and he prays for hope He prays that someone would listen ...
