The journal of man constantly stormed!
Devon Bates 1980 (Norfolk)
As night falls I settle in!
Darkness settles under the moonlight!
The water dripping from my chin!
So much I see even though comets still flew by!
Hurricanes and tornadoes!
Angels and there halos!
Such things occur on an average day!
Sometimes I still wonder who else handed a man a dollar today?
We live we breathe we overcome!
Regardless!
It's not all just about how the West was won!
Yes growing up I had a crown!
Yet, life and God are good!
No one ever took it!
To see blue leaves was a blessing!
I smile now!
Perhaps, one day 100 million dollars and royalties will one day get passed into my house!
There are firefighters policeman and nurses!
Mothers politician's some people of color!
Noble peace prize winners!
Protesters who really are saving a life!
A fact is a fact!
Make peace with the truth!
We live we grow together we are all human!
Color stops at only what climate we lived in!
Vote for the people!
Unity not spite!
Humanity will die!
If we keep killing our own kind!
Something for your mind!
