You’re in the dark, gave up on goodness? Let me share this. I was feeling crumby, people passing me, disregarding my feelings to serve thier own. How ugly this world is I thought. Then a stranger said hi, how’s ur day with a true smile aimed right at me. I couldn’t help but smile back and say I feel fine thanks. And u know what?? I really did feel fine. Then I passed it on by greeting others who passed by during my day. Now it’s ur turn… Pass it on 😊
I am a walking contradiction of traditions some say. An African American and Native American Muslim poet with a personal life history as violently turbulent as a Storm. A visionary from the bottom of life’s social barrel striving to share the hope found in the light of faith through sometimes dark but real poetry. I’m a former member of the Bloods street gang, former serial bank robber, and both federal/state prison convict. I live on my mother’s tribal reservation of the Leech Lake band of Ojibwe in Minnesota. View more posts
