Premium Member That Still Small Voice
In still small voice you spoke to me
And whispered oh, so earnestly
“Be careful, child, this will not do
You wander far for pastures new…

For forty days and nights, a tempest strange

One shelter only from those winds of change:
an ark that sailed to...

On one’s own as a Christian
is it really possible to do?
the church tells us it’s not so
but many feel so not just a few

If I could go back in time;
I would rename the stars that shine.

Hercules and Perseus would be replaced;
Elijah and Moses would take their place.

Black Inventors
Poet: Ken Jordan
Poem: Black Inventors
Edited by: Sparkle Jordan
written: August/2013

Black 
Inventors
are 
the forgotten,

There's 
no mention
of them
in 
America's
history 
books -

And 
school
goes on
as usual,

America,
is
not
telling the
truth -

Like 
the lie
they
continue
to tell
about
Christopher
 Columbus -

Did he 
really
discover
America,

when 
Native 
Americans
were
already 
here?

What 
are you
afraid 
of
America?

It's time to
re-write 
the 
 history
books;

This time,
include
black 
history,
and
all 
that...
