What happened black man? Why don't you smile? Why don't you dance? Why don't you laugh? Why don't you love? Brother, where has your joy gone? Who took it? Just as the skies cloud, as does your soul. Black man who took your love? Oh sweet brother who has smitten you? Reveal to me your wounds. . . your scars and skeletons. Who were you before the strikes? What were you called before they titled you? Do you know your name? Have you forgotten to remember or have you simply remembered to forget? They ask of you where do you come from, but do you recall? Do you remember your mother's face? Her voice?
Her scent?
Her love?
Oh, black man why has the world forsaken you? Who do you cry out for on the darkest of nights? Who's arms do you run to when your demons chase? Who's home do you return to in search for rest? Oh, bless your soul young man. For I truly want to know...
