This poem is amazing. The struggle is profoundly conveyed through this creative passage.
Extraordinary ordinary Black people I am a social worker with no political power
When I speak you hear silence
I am a teacher drowning in debt

A Press Release from the Color Black
The goal of A Press Release from the Color Black is to reinvent the color black to the entire world. Ideas once thought to be true are proven false. This is the end of the road for black's unofficial, official status of an evil gloomy Gus. The prolific untruths told about the color black no longer have credit. Readers will learn that the color black is much more than the favorite color of the grim reaper.

Loves Trellis -BAS Poetry Submission
Loves Trellis
Sleepwalking since spring
Being in love is such a fragile state
A timid daredevil
Filling the empty with anticipation
Of approaching joy
Butterfly flutter by
Love is the principal passenger
Casting spells
Upon the heart
Kissing the tears of lonely
Erasing the absence that came before
The echoes of a thousand fears
Fall on silent ears
Love lives simply
Though the rainbows arch
Painting the rising sun
Brightened eyes escort glowing smiles
Slow dancing with sunrays
Lingering ja… Continue

- How are you my sister, I would like to present the opportunity for you to do something that might one day help out a family member, or even a friend. Your support would be greatly appreciated, and if you will, please pass this info. along to your friends, if not I still love you, and there's nothing you can do about it.
Most of you already know that I have written a book entitled; There's Something Phony About "US" the church which deals with us who say we're saved, but nothing about our lifestyle supports our claim. But what you may not know is that when you purchase my book, 10% of the proceeds go to the American Cancer Society(my grandfather died from prostate cancer), and also the American heart association(my grandmother died from a massive heart attack). There are two books to choose from. You can purchase the books for just $12, or $18 by clicking on the links below. Let's help put an end to these 2 diseases that's affecting all people alike. So, on behalf of Myself, the Kingdom of God, my grandmother, and my grandfather, thank you very much for your support! May God continue to bless each and everyone of you. Please click on the link below to purchase or preview my book. Love you to Life!!!!
