Is?                                                                             8/10/12




Is this the place my spirit resides

or is this the place my soul hides?

Inside solid flesh
holding sanity together
with a mentality built from tragic reality;

Soul released from flesh
before they heard their 1st born's
first breath;

Mothers telling sons
that their fathers were good men;

Mothers locked up without parole
leaving behind seeds
waking from nightmare's dream;

Is this where my mind is destine to live

or can I harness the light
and take cerebral flight
until the day I no longer
have to fight the plight of my life?
