I’ve got my hand in the fire
getting high on how it burns;
I feel every ounce of it,
screw the comfortably numb;
Soothed by your rushing water,
pain’s fall bridges to pleasure;
You exceed expectations.

I am a Brother of a Different Race, Ethnicity, Color, Language and Creed, Though I Can Identify With Your Journey.
For My People Walk a Similar Road.
We have Known Slavery, Whips, Chains and the Continued Attempts to Silence Our Collective Voice(s).
This Road is Long, the Path is Steep, and the Friends willing to travel with you are Few, But I would say to be Encouraged.
You Will One Day Get There, If You Are Willing to Continue the Journey, Endure the Race, and Aim towards the Higher Calling.
Though Water, Time Zone(s), and Distance May Separate US, Know That If Your Pursuit is Positive, Intention(s) Are Honest Regarding the Freedom of All Citizens, and your Motives are Sincere and Pure, Then I Will Stand With You.
The World is Watching, Documenting and Praying For your Positive and Peaceful Resolution.
Best Regards

in poison nectar is not there
in nectar poison is not there
both are things impartial
i take i suffer
when i exceed my own limit
The sun seemed to go down a few degrees
Behind the clouds, it cast its beams
The radiating light gave clouds uncoating of white
Sun tickled their fancy as they laughted with delight
The heat of the day approaches with speed
Soon outside will be uncomfortable to exceed
Life's duty calls to come inside, get busy with work
Do the jobs desinated to the call of wife
Couplets...Well, sort of ..Just hastily written on the porch
