Quintasia Price Poet Free verse

Ashame

Why young black men not doing right today?
One word I could describe this generation-Ashame
Ashame that we had to get whips for you
Ashame we had to die for you
Ashame we had to march for rights,
so you could have better lives
Ashame to see our own kind kill one another
Ashame we beat, rape, kill our women,
we once respected of
Ashame that we waste our time
Ashame that we have to much pride
Ashame for what our generation has become,
Ashame to be free, where I came from
