ONE FOR BOOMER
Receding hairline, failing vision,
hair now turning grey,
an aging boomer in final protest,
Father Time his cause this day.
He donned his headband, tie-dyed jeans,
scorched draft card of protests past,
then set out for one last battle--
To find his youth that quietly passed.
Lonely aging Boomer,
A different kind of man;
His colleagues are all now in the wind,
as he makes his final stand.…

A SLAVE'S PRAYER
I was stole from Eden, an innocent soul,
crossed seas and centuries, chained and cold;
My mother was raped and beaten to death,

I was chained to 'dis land, 'dis "Land of the free,"
by people with a God, who sho must can't see.
But a change is a comin', Tho I won't no mo…
