Black Waterfall

Standing in the mist of black water, as water rise over my head./
One side of my soul is pure Marvin Gaye, while the other is dead./
Lines race through my mind,Not knowing which one to take./
Scared to death of my silent soul as another line breaks./

Traveling at a hundred miles per hour through an addict of thoughts./
Just blessed being able to hear melodies of another deep soul, but with a rap-flow brought./
I sit silent between the sun setting behind black waterfalls,listening ---
To the soul of an unheard legend, wishing for one day of being great like him, and for everyone to hear unexplainable lines that I hear./
Only my own thoughts second guessing myself,"Not being good enought for the world," is the only step I come to fear./

Though I'm so mezmerised by his lines of deep thoughts and truths, that I can still feel every flow running within my soul./
While black waterfalls cover my face, Now Im wondering how so much talent can be stole! ---
Insane from questions, as Fatz Domino sung,"Blueberry Hill" as blood flowed through Louisiana streets./
Floating on a cloud with you, as I started to cry and can't sleep./

Of wanting to be knowledged by how this dream would really end,
Without a Covering pretend!/
So I vision---
All spoken talent, sitting together holding hands behind black waterfalls of troubled memories resting silently in our heads./
While a flower of talent dies, another bud is sprouted crying, and replaces the legends of the dead./

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
