This is a re-post of my previous work from August 21. I feel that the poem is relevant again. The poem describes the story of an African Americans journey in faith.
It’s about living a true life
A life bound to your culture
Not to destroy family bonds
Not to disappoint grandma
It’s about finding the you
That was stolen on the ship
Finding the you before our families split
Leaving shackles isn’t sin
Staying in them and being pinned is
It’s not about your religion versus mine
It’s not about who you find divine
It’s not about who’s built to God’s design
Only about self guidance and love
Only for world peace
Only to pay respect to the wrongfully deceased
My culture was robbed from me
My skin was torn off me
My hair shaved down
Now I’m building up from the ground
Do you hear that sound?
It’s the bell of revolution
It’s about living my life
Find your own solution.

The picture is interesting and the poem is flowing with tension and a suspenseful final lyric.
