A Poem for Yall
I thought I'd post this to support RMACK's last post.
We Are With You
For brothers everywhere who are keeping on when life is tough.
Don’t give up on tomorrow.
But why shouldn’t you when you say no one can feel your hearts sorrow.
That is not so, you are not by yourself in your plight,
There are sisters with your in your fight.
You face hardships that we cannot measure.
But it is your perseverance and manhood that we treasure.
Times are hard but when were they not.
Your African ancestor brothers were great men or have you forgot

Hey Phoenix...
That was so great! And I know you speak for countless other sistas, myself included. Shame that so many brothers don't already know we got their backs. Maybe that's bec of the relentless pursuit of getting US from the back. lol

@ So Wise - yup I agree wiht you on getting at us from the back. lol
But for real, if they'd take a moment to see the whole forest and not just the tree they'd see us supporting them and even sacrificing for them. what they usually recognise is when that sista is tried of supporting them with out a thank you evey now and then and she is ready to give up cause he has made it too hard for her to keep being supportive. Whew!
