BLACK SOULS LOST (5-27-07,
Victory Park, Smyrna, TN, by Carl A. Patton)
Beloved the world is
on a mission to take over the hearts and minds of all that
stoop
to low for the floor. There is frog’s bottom
and often as my brother said as low as you can go. Hip-Hop ain’t hip if you
need a switch to turn young and old inside out. The foolish
settled on style and a world gone mad. The righteous although abused but
not used relied on God and Christ. They saw a brighter day then, now, before
and later. (24 July 2009)
There
was once a time not
long
ago that many souls
began
to wander.
There
was a time when many
of these
people hid in the woods and
behind
streetlights.
But
now they wandered to no
visible
end. Yes, there was once
a
Black son.
Something
called Crack to his name.
Where
did they go? Lord just
where
do they do?
Meanwhile
Satan is in vogue as
many
embraced his hand.
Another
soul was stolen.
The
scorekeeper had not lost
count
but the uncounted remained
firm
as the oak.
Souls
meanwhile littered the interment
camps
and stockades appeared to
accommodate
many of the wretched of
the
earth, which reached out to Black and White.
The
sick bays, hospitals and treatment
centers
also were strewn with the
waste
of foul Crack Pipes gone wild.
We
saw many at places where people had
lost
contact with their names and many
grumbled
of things incoherent but sad.
The
ravages of this vicious goatherd
destroyed
many homes as parents, mother
and
father vowed to help them but to never
help
those that cried for help but looked
the
other way.
Where
had the son gone, the sister, brother
daughter
are mother and father?
Life
meanwhile went on as the righteous
had a
mission toward the souls of the lost.
I
frowned as I saw that son fade
in a
smokeless fire but even sadder
are
days for lost Black souls.
