now poem. for us.
dont let them die out
all these old/blk/people
don't let them cop out
with their memories
of slavery/survival
it is our
heritage.
u know. part/african
part/negro.
part/slave
sit down with em brothas and sistuhs.
talk to em. listen to their
tales of victories/woes/sorrows.
listen to their blk/
myths.
record them talken their ago talk
for our tomorrows.
ask them bout the songs of
births. the herbs
that cured
their aches.
the crazy/
niggers blowen
some cracker's cool.
