Not afraid to expose
the evils of the day
in a positive poem
that all may read
to understand
the fight for freedom.
Herewith, my poem
on the evils of a mad man
ruling a country without democracy.
Awake, awake the drums are beating
people in the streets of Zimbabwe-
Nine million zim dollar to buy
a yankee dollar in time
to buy a loaf of bread
to feed a family of five
to wonder why
they must die,
by order of
a mad dictator,
with force to vote
or see the whips
lashing upon their backs
to beat them black and blue
that they may fall down to wonder
how can it be possible in this day and age
to live in a land without a democracy for it’s people.
Hello Jeanne Sparks-Carreker,
to dream I have a dream
to see me and my kin
converted to love and hold
and grow old with others
of color not like mine
but inside the same.
Why. why o why
should I be denied
to mix and play
with those who
love me as I am
a Christian child
loved by God.
HI the Angel that would think of me
to write a poem about my misery
when I was young and afraid
not knowing why or what I did
to deserve the horrors, not yet
forgotten in my nightly dreams.
I have heard more that a hundred
"I am so sorry, Son,"
but the next blow
takes all the sorry's away
to another day
where he waits again.
Perhaps you will read my latest poem -
"Therfore I Cry."
To the Saint ,with the imagination of a well trained trooper. Who knows a trick or two of how to eliminate the dangerous invaders, threatening the country folk who are so afraid of the plastic bullets flying around them.

A journey of a boy to seek what others cannot see, because they do not believe in cars that are old and abondoned by men, who are too afraid to search for the truth and the superstition that will set their minds free.
My thanks to you for the generous reviews that I do not deserve.

you and me -
Looking for a pirate
to see,
if he will
meet us at sea
and marry us
with respect
that we demand,
as pirates of the seas
in the Caribbean sun.
My thanks to you, for the kind review that means so much to me.
embe, that cares.
