We have a President of Color,, WOW
November 6, 2008
Hey Family,, Just wanted to touch base..
I know its been a while. I was out of work after breaking
up a fight. After fighting hard to make sure I could get
back to work. Things have finally settle down where I could
write something. The second story for the second 2009
anthology was sent out. I was happy to complete.. I am sure
you are going to like both books when they come out. I
think I have brought the heat with both of my entries..
Keep your eyes open for "The Soul of A Man" and "Bended
Knees"
The book tour is supposed to jump off in January, in North
Carolina.. Keep your fingers cross trying to get the money
to make it down.. I'll keep everyone on touch..
Now lets stand again and let out a strong OBAMA OBAMA!!!
Yes He made it happen..
I had to write something about that night so please check
out the new piece which I offer as a tribute to President
Elect Obama!!!
Check out the new poem
Night of Change
From the past cries of “I Am A Man”
to the current cheers of “Yes We Can”
His God gifted light shined ever so bright
well into the cool November night.
The man who would fulfill the dream deferred
no longer would we be unheard.
The roars grew louder with when each state turned blue
as we watched a new future come hurdling through.
With a ground swell unseen to this very date
there was a decline of those precious red states.
The people’s voice was loud and absolutely clear.
The statement of change was the echo in each other’s ear.
Now Lord we ask to please relay these thoughts,
thank our brothers and sisters for the wars they fought.
For this great day wouldn’t be the same
without the sacrifices of the brave but faceless with no
historic name.
Your bloodshed is not forgotten but instead it’s honored
with pride and grace.
It wasn’t just the new president who brought tears to each
jubilant face.
It was the collected spirit shared by our at times
overlooked race.
But this day wasn’t only for us of the same color
It was for the moment that now we can all be called
brothers.
The 4th of November was the final step of a race ran above
common racial drama.
For today the world must say
“The 44th President of these United States is Barrack
Hussein Obama”
