                                                     I CRY

I CRY, BECAUSE, IT HAS BEEN 24 YRS SINCE MY SISTER LAST BREATHE LIFE

I KNOW SHE IS WITH THE “FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN”, BUT, I HEAR MY INNER VOICE CRY OUT, “WHY DID U HAVE TO LEAVE ME?“I MISS U ALWAYZ “SHORTCAKE”

I CRY AS I TRAVEL FROM POINT A TO POINT B, I SEE WHAT LOOKS TO BE AN ELDERLY WOMAN WITH BADLY SWOLLEN ANKLES, INVISIBLE “SOULS” ON HER PAST BEAT UP SHOES, & TEETH THAT LOOKED LIKE SHE BRUSHED THEM WITH CHARCOAL WHILE SITTING UNDER A BRIDGE OF HOMELESSNESS

I CRY, WHEN I SEE A CHILD WEARING CLOTHES 3 SIZES

TOO SMALL, CHEECKS SUCKEN IN FROM LACK OF NOURISHMENT & A FACE SO BATTERED,SO BRUISED IT LOOKS AS IF HE JUST ESCAPED THE HOLOCOST

I CRY, BECAUSE, IN THIS LAND OF EXCESS & GOV’T WASTE, THERE ARE FAR TOO MANY SENIORS THAT HAVE TO CHOOSE BETWEEN BUYING NECESSARY MEDICATION OR BUYING NECESSARY FOOD 2 SUSTAIN LIFE

I CRY & SHAKE HEAD IN ANGER & DISGUST,BECAUSE, NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES SHE FILED CHARGES, OBTAINED RESTRAINING ORDERS, & MOVED AWAY FROM HIM, HE KEPT FINDING HER & SADLY THIS TIME HE DECLARED, “IF I CAN’T HAVE U, THEN NO ONE CAN!!”

NOW, BOTH ARE NO LONGER AMONG THE LIVING AMONG THE LIVING

I CRY & ACHE INSIDE, BECAUSE, THERE ARE WAR VETERANS, ESPECIALLY, THOSE THAT SUFFER FROM POST TRAUMATIC STRESS SYNDROME THAT STILL ‘TIL THIS DAY DON’T HAVE A PERMANENT HOME ADDRESS

I SURELY CRY & GO TO THAT “WHAT THE HELL” STATE OF MIND WHEN SOME “BUMP YA GUMS” TRY 2 SAY THAT ANY RAPE VICTIM BROUGHT IT UPON THEMSELVES,BECAUSE, OF THEIR OUTERDRESS

YA C, THERE IS A JACKED UP, BIZZARO WORLD MINDSET WHEN THE VICTIMS BECOME THE PERPETRATORS

I GET PISSED TO END, BECAUSE, IN 2009, I AM THE CONTINUAL OBJECT OF RACIAL PROFILING AS I WALK FROM MY HOME TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD CONVENIENT STORE WITH A POCKET FULL OF GREEN, SILVER, COPPER

MY SPIRITUAL STOMACH CHURNS AS I SEE SO CALLED MINISTERS OF GOD LIVING IN GLUTNEY, POCKETS OVERWEIGHT WITH THE MONEY THAT SHOULD BE GOING TO THE CHURCH AND BENEFITING ALL OF GOD’S PEOPLE

INSTEAD, WE HAVE MEMBERS OF CONGREGATIONS STRUGGLING TO MEET THEIR BASIC NEEDS & PREACHERS LOOKING TO BUY THAT 2^ND BEEMER

SEXUAL PERVERSION AMONG CHURCH LEADERS IS AS RAMPANT AS GETTING A WIPH OF PEPPA JUST BEFORE SNEEZING

I CRY, BECAUSE, OUR WORLD IS IN TREMENDOUS PAIN & IN NEED OF HEALING

THIS IS AN EXPRESSION OF THOUGHT BY ONE CALLED QUIETSTORM OF SPOKENWORD & THIS IS WHY,“I CRY”
