Letter To America
The rising son loves the concrete I walk
one of the only things of a color in that
nature allowed shine like that.
I wonder if I loved America could it
learned to love me back.
I caught my first ball here had my first kiss here yet I live in fear.
Terrors to an era where none of these
foreign ideas can fit in my brain a like.
If mind, soul, and body wouldn't lead to
a homicide the colors would. You don't
acknowledge the power of color the thing that
gives paint shine what words
die trying to describe I wish to blaze the
trail not only to livefreely however be seen.
Be freed mentally, physically, and visually represent me well
on those screens do you?
Much like the favorite part of ancestry I enjoy about the image they
portray of me
on that tv. If it's all black the device is off and
I don't have to look back i gaze forward.
