How shall I say: Please finish "Black Queen". Very cool. You need not to justify...........
\"I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality.” Dr. Martin Luther King

Off sight...
[size=3]Every thought drained out by this figure, whose only existence is not within my presence but my sub conscience. Conscious to create contact, unaware immune feeling that I deny and yet still prolong this liberation of self-healing. Counter acting distorted reflection with an exaggeration, but seems to be fruitless within its motive. Our mind inter connected in fraction and subtraction. Your conspicuous words marinate into my whole being, unremoveable neither to my need or sight.

Hey wassup everyone, im new 2 this site jus been chekin out sum of the forums n that and this one looked kinda cool, sum of the poetry seems 2 b really inspiring and there really is sum amazin writing here, i jus thought id share this poem that i wrote in 2002, i neva really shared it with ne1, its jus kinda bout the way i was feelin at the time, it aint half as good as the poems i have read here in this forum but i feel 2 share it,i fink it was durin the summer holiday afta my GCSEs.
The poem was aimed at people of other races who stereo type black people, here goes, its called You Know I Hate the Fact
You know I hate the fact, that because i'm black, life must be different for me.
Peeps think i'm gonna do drugs,
They think i'm one of the thugs,
That's not how it's meant to be!
You know I hate the fact, that because i'm black, i'm seen as a theif in shop's.
"I just want to buy somethin'!"
Your eye's I see watchin', and never stopin' as you follow me around the shop.
Why open the place if you won't give me space?
Please excuse me for being of a different race!
You know I hate the fact, that because i'm black, you feel to catch joke off me.
"You wassup bruv, show me some love!"
"Innit man, where you get that tan?"
Come on peeps, your actin like sheep, callin' me your brother? dang i don't know your mother!
My words amuse you, but really confuse you, I say brother for a reason, not just to suit the season!
It's to show love for a friend or my cuz.
Martin Luther King chose to fight for the right,
That black people would live well day and night.
The hero acted fast,
"Free at Last"
Life's got better since.
King had a dream that he had forseen,
An equal nation, and good race relation.
Experienced many times, these thoughts I rhym,
But it may not be the same for you.
Racism must dissapear,
That means losing he fear
Martins Dream WILL come true!
Thats why I love the fact, that I am black and working towards the dream.
