Verlena S. Walker Poet Verse

To Seek Knowledge

TO SEEK KNOWLEDGE

To thine own self be true.
Why am I here?
From where did I come?

The mighty will fall.
What is the measure of a man?
What is a power struggle?

I am an aftermath of Civil Rights time.
What happen during Civil Rights time?
What was the Civil Rights Movement?

A fight for social justice is a fight against social injustice.
Why am I here?
From where did I come?
