Malcolm seemed nice
Young Malcolm was meek, rarely riled,
asking for korma, quite mild,
they all thought him nice,
until ordering rice,
that was where Malcolm went wild.

Double Tanka Re: Malcolm X
a. Perspective of Malcolm X

in the ghettos
like the reservations
white man builds
a separation of skins
hearts and minds


b. My Perspective

Malcolm Little born
to roll uphill
against all odds
a boy transmogrifies
into variable X...

All Lives Matter
Raising the slogans won't make it any better. 
Dare to accept the truth, 
All lives matter. 
Does that sound better, 
Islam is the way out, 
Quran is the light out. 
Read it I promise you will later have no doubt, 
As  from it I have learned 
All lives matter....

Assasination Raga
Meir Kahane, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, John F. Kennedy 
 All gone by the assassin's bullet
     My blood chills at 
the thought of another gunshot
   A friend told me  - they know what they are getting into 
He was right!
   But still  - my blood runs cold
Doesn't yours?...

Premium Member Election 2016 and 2024
there are no heroes anymore,
no one with that dream.
it has become a weapon
that kills when charisma ends.

there are no malcolm x's,
for we have found ourselves.
no johns or roberts to kill,
no kings to praise.

where are the people
in a world that sees no wrong,
in a candidate opening pandora's box,
to win his  throne?...

Malcolm X In America
One of the greatest scholars and speak so clear for a messaging so rugged but his future so clear 

Day is his night and sunset be his fright

As human as could be ,it only is right

Marching as a man is all we could see

One turn of his cheek was the ending of me

Untold story we would never could see

The truth about America is Malcom and me....

Much of what I say might sound like it’s 
  stirring up trouble, but it's the truth!
              Quote by Malcolm X
                    
                          stir

           the wind changed slightly 
         that day i picked up a stone 
               moving some atoms
          instead of leaving them be 
         consequence rearranged me

Rebirth
lately I've been lazy
crazy
my sunshine
reflects off frost
i reminisce about innocence
lost
and found
like a rebound
in the fourth quarter
ball in hand off the board
26,000 fans and still we're bored
despite that we're lords
I want brothers in hordes
panther style
revolution is our idle wild
just you wait and see
MALCOLM AIN'T DEAD
he's reborn in ME...

Annihilation
So you wanna annihilate me…
Perform your version of genocide on me
You wanna silence me….
Deny me freedom
From my birthright of royalty
Like Malcolm you wanna assassinate
My very existence from your cerebral cortex
Damaging your membrane with
Overloads of insane cruel intentions
Plotting my demise
Setting Snares Traps
Hoping I will DIE
But as a famous poet once stated
STILL I RISE!!!!!!!!!!!!...

Rhyme Pressure
In hell I inhale the hate you dispel, 
My breath is to my word, exhale is to speak
I, Never weak but sleek and cheek like leather, and never will you weather
How I, the better man will flip your compensation
In delegation to the revolution, now I Malcolm…
I become in daylight, broad
The X I relish on your façade, so set aside desire and aspire to my level
If not peril under lucid elixir of rhyme pressure...

Premium Member I Have Been Stoned
I have been stoned,
 born the wrong color.
driven from my native soil,
crushed like pigs on ships,
delivered into slavery.

and I was crushed when
Lincoln died, but freed us,
climbed and conquered racist mountains,
Malcolm X rebuilding us,
Kennedy revitalizing lost spirits,
King delivered us from temptation.

I have built a new history of me,
opened new opportunities,
became a citizen of the land,
and gained the right to die a free man....

F Bomb
“F Bomb”
By Nate Spears

I got the heart of a man name Malcolm
The visions of Martin Luther
The tongue of Emmett Till
The brains of Medgar Evers

Can I get a window seat
Away from defeat
Can I get park for the kids to play
Next to the spot
Where Rosa refused her seat

Langston in my pen
Proud, young, and free
Handsome and intelligent
The government targets me
First,
In a second
My history is a blessing
The court system in racist
Society shows the traces....

My American Haikus (For Jack)
wet pavement gleaming
on a black monday night, wet
with black monday rain

ole saint nick a no-
show once again in motown
another ghetto christmas

some people are al-
ways right, some people are al-
ways wrong, which are you?

imagine martin was missed and
tupac never got shot and
brother malcolm lived

inner city bustle
gives way to that inner city
hustle- thats motown

we stand on the roof-
tops yelling out unto the
masses; can you hear us?...

T
Another Child Lost 
A man is set free
Instead of joining the cause 
We get online to speak
Just imagine what might have been 
With no JUSTICE & no Peace
If our leaders were like us now then
We still be in shackles from our hands to our feet
Thank God there was a Malcolm, a Martin, and Medger
But now it’s up to US to continue their ENDEAVORS!!!
Please Let’s Stop The Talk, and Walk the Walk.
PICK UP THE TORCH, STOP OUR YOUTH FROM BEING KILLED UN NECESSARY
