POEM OF THE DAY - "ADAM"

ADAM

I am the river of love
that flows through your veins
and the conscience of life
that thrives in your brain
and bronze and black granite
I stand in your soul
and dreams that you live
until you are old.

I am the passion
unleashed, unmatched, untamed
from sweaty palms on smooth faces
and in bronze and black granite
I dance in your head
and songs that you sing
until you are dead.

I am the fruit of the earth
with the nectar you crave
the prince that protects you
from now ’til the grave.

And to testify to truth of myself,
I am the bosom of peace
where mercy lies
and the bed of solace
from which you should rise.

And in bronze and black granite
and kisses so sweet
I am a real black man
from the crown of my head
to the soles of my feet.
