Dilated eye 1/24/03


Falsifying daily information,
attempting to veil an entire nation,
blinding the vision of the wise,
absorbing the will and strength
of the strong with the flesh
dressed in a see through thong,
youngsters watching t.v
thinking what they see is the only
way to be, but that's not reality;

the truth is we help ourselves
become the number one casualty
caught in the trap of so called
abolished slavery,
stuck in your own misery,
constantly repeating history;

his story is always a mixture of blood
and glory, soaked into the soil of
this earth, penetrating to the depths
of the core, fueling the world with
our forefather's life fluid;

wives raped, daughters disgraced, but
calling me daddy in his place,
which burns my soul;
dealing with situations that are out
of my hand's control, so we take life
day by day and patiently watch as
the plot unfolds;
its taking a toll raising my seeds on
land that was stolen from the american Indians;

they call me wounded knee cause
when I sleep I see pictures of people
hung that resemble me;
watching my people's pride
demised right before my dilated eyes;
