Solomon Shane

Solomon
A name that would sound of the Hebrew
Yet where I walk my skin color pronounces different
Solomon 
A sound that reminds  you of the wiseman and his mines
Or of his many wives
A gas chamber I never went too
A biblical verse I never entered 
Solomon
A history of an irish girl
Who married with a runaway slave,
To give him a name a legacy
Solomon
Like the roots of my past,
Sturdy, strong and irreplaceable
I am just  a girl with many accusations given to me
