I Am Black

What do I write to a world 

Not ready for my strife!

This word I speak

To the life of this thing called being...  

Neither the mild nor the meek...

Will come to seek 

From the wisdom that I speak...

For  this gift I give 

Can only come from being free

Not from the form of the bondage 

That makes a man flee! 

No, you can not see me. 

For I am the  countless speck of a being 

Connected to the spirit of infinity...
