Where I'm From

I am from the backstreets of Oakland
from the loud police sierings
and the ambulance rush.
I am from the sideshow on seminary
I am from the dealers selling
and the crackheads getting high.
I am from the shooting around the corner
the young teen dead.
i am from the blood of my mom
heart of a bull.
But in the neighborhood that doesn't matter
so be careful and make the right decisions.
So listen and be quick
or you you
ill be in a bad perdicoment.

Malcom X

The smell of your blood
draining from your body.
the hunger for knowledge
from your brain.
the hands clapping and the roar
of the audience at your speeches.
I can see the fancy suits you wore.
Malcom X one of many important people
the quote of" I believe in reconizing every human being
niether white,black,brown,nor red.
If you were here here Malcom
I would say thank-you
You are an example of a
true hero
