Lord..

Thank you for this poem..



if you are Haitian....merci..if you are not Haitian thank you..we are all Africans...





they say that we are the worst../

but we're the FIRSt/

forget a picket sign..true revolution was started with a gun burst/

and a never ending thirst/

for freedom.......we laugh at Ham's "curse"/

we defeated the French, and what's worse/

took the white out of the flag..and cut off the purse-/

strings to France...1804 can we reverse?/

2 hundred years back to that first/

signal to revolution ..this is the last verse/

No problem bro.. blame it on late night hot guiness...niceone.gif

i enjoyed this tribute to haiti whose significance is often lost due to current reality.

thanks for reminding/teaching

Glad you appreciated it. Peace and love.
