Poem
I'AM I am somebody Iam that light colored caramel over spirit the voice of ancestors past i am that voice within your head the one that says are you just gonna watch or do something the right thing Iam your eyes seing things that you overlooked visions that you have mistook yes Iam that voice in your ear that wont stop telling you WAKE UP WAKE UP for the dormant brain is good as sheep although i perceive mental pictures silent films play out in my head silent because the tongues of our ancestors have been cut out we have been consumed with so much everyday shit that many of us no longer listen for the words of those before us meditate sit alone focus and perceive the images the sounds the voices yes Iam the one at the river watching as the voice of yemaya rolls upon the shore swish swish have you heard it yes Iam the one who took you out of bondage from yourself love hidden within the walls of your skin yes I am the one who released you from your pain and negative thoughts yet you still deny me but i will never give up for it is not I BUT THE ANCESTORS who are telling you you can do this you can be free open your mind open your eyes open your heart yes Iam that voice giving voice to those that dont have one adding harmony to your life and a perspective to your soul i am the destiny you will come to love with every waking breath i reach into the fires waiting to be burned yet un-scorched as rains fall i stay dry believing only you can calm my thirst or the fire within but yet Iam unseen by you for i will be forever spirit forever I YES I AM YES I AM DAVID SANDERS 24.MAY .2014
