    Poem Commentary

    My present manifestation and walk with and towards GOD....

    KNIGHTS OF BLACKNESS
    Lost  in  seemingly  never  ending  darkness
    Driven  to  coldness  due  to survival  and   fright
    Ready  to  punch  or  jab  or  flip  with  any  injustice
    Not  able  to  the  see  the  blessing  thru  financial  plight
    Singing  hymns   spiritually  to  the  faith  that  time  has  bought
    Forgetting  the  badge  of  being  of  color  sometime  sought
    Highlighting  inequality in  standing  up  for  civil  rights
    Igniting  artistry  and  initiating  genres  of  entertainment
    Multi  hues  of  dark  shades  covering  this  globe
    From  Kings  to  Queens  procreating  Sons  to  God
    Closing  My  Eyes  to  See  Blackness  Beautiful  and  Universal
    Opening  My  Eyes  to  Hatred  Determined  by  Teaching
    Feeling  into  my  Oneness  in  Good  Likeness  to  Divine  being
    Holding  Keys  to  Lighting  the  Mysteries  of  Self  Perpetuity
    I  AM  BLACK  KING  OF  THE  KNIGHTS’  STARS  IN  THE   SKY
    Illuminating  horizons  of   Blackness  to  Reconcile  in  Light
    Never  to  look  down  on  a  dark  unclear  exterior  as  an  Omega
    Traveling  far  and   fast  back  to  the  Alpha ………
    By  Way  of  Acknowledging  my  Journey  in   Blackness….
    Lost  in  seemingly  never  ending  darkness

    This is very well written and has a message I am sure alot of people can relate to. I like the strength in your words here...very powerful . If it was only all this powerful and positive a vibe coming from our little corner of society...and everyone's...the world would be a much better place.

    Thanks for reading MalikPeterson, I believe the power is within us all, just waiting to be found out and fully realized in light!!!

    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.
