[hometext] => another free verse...
[bodytext] => Take a look in the mirror tell me what do you see I see a black male standing five foot seven one hundred fifty five pounds (give or take a pound) with black hair in a puff and he's wearing glasses ... okay, now look closer don't think, but tell me what you see I see a lost child not scared, just lost he's confused mix emotions of love, lust loneliness, happiness jealousy and anger run through his mind he's worried worried about what he'll turn out to be if his mother will approve of his decisions his school work, if he can achieve what he knows his brothers will achieve He's worried about his youngest brother and his safety when he's alone worried about his eldest brother in college how many brain cells die when he gets stoned? I see thoughts about his mother fury...bliss...a lot of regret he wonders if her trials will ever end and when she'll reach that day i see an altruistic love trying to find its way a soldier for the world reaching for a better day last in deep confinement i see a struggle for belief god...heaven and hell to which will he end up Is his life already planned out does destiny exist in the case of heaven and hell does it play role in this? ... One last time take a look in the mirror tell me what do you see i see...everyone in the world overall a human being.
