I wrote this on a posted note because I couldn't find paper
i'd rather be writing
with lightning
like God
bringin life through my wife
like Adam
being seduced...without the apple...
reading stories of slave heroes
Sojourner and Nat Turner
Being inspired like poetry
Losing my life for my seed
because dyin for somethin makes life worth living
takin a tour of Heaven
watchin Pac and Big L play craps with Paul and Peter
watchin love meet hate
awaiting for the sight of their children…. US
i'd rather be...
as high as the moon
slippin slidin on sunlight
fightin for what right like I lived in the 60's...
i'd rather be the bullet proof vest that protected Malcolm X
livin comfortable with no stress playin chess with God
gettin head nods from Jesus when I made a good move...
puttin my father in checkmate
before he cheats on another mate..
i'd rather be praying like David
saving like payless
no stress...past the skies
flyin away
like kanye
on my spaceship
before I die
A fascinating poem, although I'll have to ask the Lord what's going on if it's like this when I get there. Your description is certainly different than what He tells us in the bible.
I just finiished reading "The Resurrection of Nat Turner" a novel. It revealed so much that was new to me. Thank God we are equal...the way He made us. Nat Turner and others like them were wonderful men.
When two men hit the reset button and decide to go out looking for the good in the world, they not only find it but also a lot more.
P.S. The title is listed on Amazon under Look for Something Good by Robert Drews (not by Robert H. Drews)
