    AFRICA PART 2

    Africa my cradle black queen
    The land of ancient Nubian
    From it comes blue and white Niles
    That creates all races

    By the red sea shore I stand
    Only to see the blue sky turns black
    But my grievance soul is surrounded
    With bodies of floating dead souls

    For sunrise too early to be awake
    Set too soon to get bright
    And move too fast to be known
    Before the awful night comes

    A long night has fallen on Africa
    As the sun cease to shine
    And the day lull sudden night
    As the dogs start howling loud

    Everywhere comes screaming
    The suffering has risen
    And no future to hold onto
    As Africa has been reaped naked

    Mama has lost her black texture
    Her precious treasure turns pleasure
    And turn her children into
    Slave to human slaughterers

    Tell me where are we?
    Here?
    Where do we go to?
    Cause mournful moon has frown on Africa

    Soul Passion

    my soul cries from this poem caues in my world we have for gotten where we came from and to see Africa still being raped of all it preish things sadden me so. Your expression remind me of Langton Hughes; if you don't know was a great African American

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
