A Black Man's Perspective
Life in Africa was full; years in the bush, a treat. Music made us happy; drums sounded for dancing feet. A loving life with family always made us smile. Living together freely, we never knew defeat. Greedy slave hunters sailed down the Nile. Chained us below with feces and bile, Our curiosity was a big mistake! We lived like that for a long bad while. Sold to the highest bidder at the market by the dock, Herded off to cotton fields, we became their livestock. Forced to do hard labor; whipped until bare backs bled. Rest would never come as time ticked on the clock. The life of a slave was hard work; at least we were fed. Some rested in cottages, others in a shed. Scorching sun, sweat, blood, the whip did not feel good. Calling a white man, “Master”, a slave’s daily dread. Even in the best conditions, the human spirit was not free. Mistreated; folks who could not take it were shot trying to flee. A man could dream of Africa and his family all day. Divided and sold into slavery a painful loss to see. The Underground Railroad helped slaves run away. Their owners and hounds tried to catch each stray. Some of the lucky ones were never found. Those who were caught for their lives had to pray. Lincoln tried to free all slaves; the Klu Klux Klan still frowned. John Wilkes Booth picked up his gun and shot the President down. Slaves were free per history, but it was not as expected. For even after the Civil War, burning and lynching did abound. About one hundred years later, the issue was resurrected. Rosa Parks stood up for her rights; NAACP directed. The Civil Rights Movement brought freedom at last. President Kennedy addressed the nation; equality enacted.
