About when he was free
But he’s a slave now
And now he’s wondering how
How once he was an African
But now they hardly consider him a man
Sounds to me more like a nightmare
A nightmare he just can’t bare
But wait
Time goes on
On and on
He is now finally free
Free from slavery
Where he’s in heaven now
Watching his family

A Slaves Dream

Contributed by TekaBoo on Friday, 14th January 2005 @ 04:10:46 PM in AEST
Topic: DreamsandWishes

He had a dream
About when he was free
But he’s a slave now
And now he’s wondering how
How once he was an African
But now they hardly consider him a man
Sounds to me more like a nightmare
A nightmare he just can’t bare
But wait
Time goes on
On and on
He is now finally free
Free from slavery
Where he’s in heaven now
Watching his family

I think the poetry is fine.. but I would like to know..do you really think that anglo america really considers that you are barely a man..and the only way you will be really free is in heaven? Because I am as white as a ..well white LOL and if you are black I .. well you are as free as me.. in my eyes anyway.. maybe more free..

I would comment here however I live in Georgia so my comment would come off as a slur in some way..However rest assured even though I did not care for this at all..I hate the majority of poems here.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
