A Story That Needs To Be Told
this story is incomplete
it has not been fully shared
with my countrymen and with my fellow citizens of the world
and through this art, and through this poetry
i intend to complete this story.
my spirit is soaring
and imploring you to complete this story.
I implore you to heed my words,
brothers and sisters
because this is a story that needs to be said,
this is a story that needs to be told
this is a song that needs to be sung.
But I defy the critics to call it anything other than poetry.
