"A Tribute"
  by 22dcentpoet


The Young Black Male GS Poets-----A Tribute

As a young black male you stand high above the crowd
Writing your lyrical verses when everyone else is talking loud
Not everyone sees the pain you feel
So you use your pen as a way to heal
With the click of the mouse and well thought out words
You speak in ways so that you may be heard
I applaud the way you use your keyboard as your weapon of choice
Like the sound of a gun, your computer makes all the noise
With the street violence of today you refuse to partake
Cause with your lyrical verses you are deadlier than any earthquake
I see you sitting on the bus with your pen and your pad
Writing erotic poems about the best SEX you ever had
I see you sitting in the park words forming in your head
Writing about friends and loved ones, some living, some dead
My young Black Brother this poem is for you
Begging you to keep on writing!!! Keep doing You
Sometimes you may feel as if your poems are not read or under appreciated
To all of you this poem is dedicated




My young Black Female Poets I have not forgotten you.....Thank you also
Part 2 is on the way LOL
