Question, Lord

Lord, you made everything
You made me Black
and put me on this earth
You made me a descendent of Adam
Why am I so prosecuted in this place

Satan is not black


Dionysus

Deity of Greek myths
Descendent of Great Zeus
Demeter birthed this son
Dwelled on Mount Olympus
Divined as god of wine

Me, You, Us

Me, You, Us.



Titillate my perceptions

Apply flame to the desire


 

Reshape my belief in you

I want surety to persist


 

Enlightened as one

On our joy-ride

And during our misfortunes


 

Embrace my brittle heart

Transport me to my inner descendent 


 

I crave to be me

For you

Tiger Cat

Tiger Cat
Tiger is what I named my cat
But I should of named him 
Bob since I found out
He is a descendent of 
A bob cat

He can hunt and fish 
Just as good as any man
Just this year on Independence Day
He caught a half grown rabbit
Right in my front yard.

Brought it to me as proud
As could be and said,
“ Look what I caught momma, 
Meeeooooweee”

There are many fjords where the Viking ships came forth. Those mighty warriors dominated the lands up north. The fallen in battle would go to meet Odin in Valhalla. For quite a long time, the Vikings ruled Scandinavia. Four centuries before Columbus, they arrived in America. There is a descendent from the Vikings named Harald today. The great land he rules is known as Norway.

Colors Fade

With every war man has waged,
the countless banners he displays.
You cannot kill mankind's will, 
his bombs, bullets, or blades.
It's his will to die seeing his prided flags wave, 
fear not the sorrow his death may bring.
All the dead men's colors,
live to fight and see another day.
Descendent banners gladly raise,
and his kin like fools still cling,
to that which must, and will fade away.

A Blessing But Not a Curse

we are all descendent of
the African man
tribes of hunters and gatherers
we are all God's children
in the beginning
there was darkness and
out of darkness came the light
the seeds are planted
in dark mother earth
Adam was made from
the dark clay first
the hands of God moves
this dark universe and
we are made in the
image of the black creator God
because your dark skin
is a blessing but not a curse

Premium Member Cali Practices Necromancy

Cali is a descendent of Babylonians
She practices necromancy
conjuring spirits of her ancestors
her rituals and spells are world-renown

bullies who misunderstand despise her
they fear her visions and insights
she often foretells what comes to be
This terrifies those who cannot

Ignorance often courts violence.
Cali’s spiritual guides warn her of the bullies
She escapes their ignorant pitchforks
Praying for their spiritual enlightenment

Some Small Seed

What if I were to be some small seed 
 Who later when those who are in need 
 Will become fine food for them to eat 
 I gave it to them and it was my treat. 

 Thoroughly it was enjoyed by everyone; 
 After being eaten and we were done 
 We put all leftover seeds into a jar 
 Saw them burst forth like a shining star. 

 Oh how happy we all had just become 
 Now others in need could have some 
 And did you know that each descendent 
 On the previous one is always dependent.
