Weaving the labyrinth of the tyranny of time,
let not the chartered task waiting ashore
become a victim of the rising tides of apathy
between our temple pillars of faith and hope.
Rather, in the due time coming let us be anchored,
resting our sails in the waters of persistence
and determination to stand and do the right thing
to return our nation to its tenets of justice and equality.
Let us not allow the founding code of beliefs
on which the foundation of this country was laid
become mere footnotes to the keloid history
that certain historical tyrannies have overshadowed.
History—Ourstory—has and continues to teach us
many lessons; plain and simple, as well as allegorically.
Let her lessons be our guide in dismantling bigotry and injustice;
recommitting ourselves to molding a nation of peace, love and unity.

I committed my sin and broken hearts
Sided with the devil and done my evil part
I have strayed way to far from my saviors loving side
I have chosen to head on back to God’s right path
In this strange thing called life we make mistakes without
Knowing if we can every turn back
I have chosen a new life by recommitting my life to the old
I am recommitting my life to my husband and to God above
I have asked for forgiveness and they have chosen to
Grant me one more chance,
A second chance to be a good wife, and a faithful child
I gambled and almost lost the most precious gift to me,
My family
Our family is our treasure, our prize as we grow we lean
On them to survive
