How many people care?

How many people care?
I mean really care?
How DARE ,
You Ask Me....
About the relevance of HBCUs
As if my people haven't been killed and abused
An HBCU 
is the only place 
where we feel safe
We are living in a world 
that wants to destroy and erase 
Our existence 
Our power
Our legacy 
How dare you ask me.... 
about the relevancy 
Of my people reaching for higher education 
Another reminder 
Of how sick and twisted this nation is.
No it's more like an insult 
Trapping the minds of my people in a vault. 
You are really asking me 
If I am still relevant 
Hate me 
Because my schools creates empowerment 
 psychological and social liberation 
They kill us because together we are a powerful nation 
An unstoppable force 
Trying to knock us off course 
Trying to make us divorce 
Our own school 
Going against our own views 
Made me reflect 
About the neglect
The disrespect that has gone on for centuries 
So many of my brothers in penitentiaries 
So many of my sisters going missing 
Can't believe you 
have 
the audacity 
To ask me 
Are HBCUs still relevant 
Tell me this
Is America still relevant 
So much blood it could flood the entire planet and beyond .....
Now it's time to trust with 
Tenasity 
It's time to pool money 
Like a mad swimming athlete 
And add with me 
Together we can cure Catastrophes

A Siren's Mourning

A Siren's Mourning

I don’t know if I’ll ever recover
Spinning in circles like a bag in the wind at the tide pools...
