Slavery and Unsavory

Slavery and Unsavory Was quite a character and so unsavory; Had heard his attitude towards slavery Was let each on have life of their own; A message from God caste in stone. Treat with respect God simply did say; When needing help never turn away; With our minds what must we be doing? About ensuing facts and their ungluing. When much better we want world to be Does it really require a certain ceremony: More knowledge into mind must be feed, And others in circles don't like to be led. As in much heat shall start to swelter Running here and there helter-skelter Challenge you to do the same to me So we will be a product of all history. What should we have become a slave to? And when whole day is finally through, Never again will I ever be left alone People will want my poems for their own. James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran www.story-telling-around-the-world.com
