Enoch’s Black Lives Matter Posts

Bypassing the absent minded, Godless lost souls That falsely try to hold onto non-existing hope Empty vessels seeking to be filled with drama Power to create, produce, and extinguish life Oh, so precious, priceless, vulnerable and fragile Sensitive to verbs that define us as men, Black men Scorn, belittlement, degradation is what we serve our…

Take me back to the place that I’ve never been Where she truly loved me and I was never without friends That place where reality always ends in smiles In the blink of an eye I was able to travel in miles Take me back to that place that has no pains or fears Yeah…

Originally posted January 2019 The essence of ignorance is dense It worsens when with stupidity we compliment Our failure to achieve starts with blaming society It stops when with our own actions we claim responsibility This is not that hard to swallow Motivation and a leader I sought to follow I searched high and low…

Exhausted from walking the same path, miles upon miles of the same road taking repeated steps Yearning for a break in Hell’s routine whether it is self-induced, or forced on by the demons that lord over us Impatiently awaiting a call from anyone that we love…anyone that we know, sending missive after missive, our regrets…

My tragedies are worth pained remembrance Chaotic situations that hold resemblance To miniature versions of old battle fields Persistent oppositions that refuse to yield Emotions expressed in the deadliest of ways Loneliness is absolute with the brighter days Casualties are countless being victims of the wrath Time is constantly accounted for, how long will it…

Originally posted May 2018 My daddy is da coolest dude I know. Him give me anything I want cause he sell rocks and snow. He buy me Tendo and K-box cause I a good boy But he leave wit him guns, he tell me they not toys When he eyes red, I scared but he…

Lord I’m tired of crawling, teach me to Soar like an eagle Now I’m looking down at Sodom and Gomorrah Seeing white people bleeding black people. Why are these white people bleeding black people It’s genocide, and if the body’s a temple, why Smoke coming from their steeples They’re burning up from the inside, conditioned…

Originally posted in July of 2018 I told you I was weak, you insisted I was strong I knew I didn’t do it right, you said I couldn’t do it wrong I said I would die right here, you said shut up and breathe again I told you I was lonely, you said meet your…

We couldn’t fix it when it was broken, where does this leave me When we yelled for liberation, they said we’d be set free Lies embedded into our culture making us easier to mold Generations of males behind bars, making it difficult for us to hold… On to our pride, our dignity, at vapor we…

Originally posted July 2018 Yeah, I’m tripping because this shit is too real Living through depression, poverty, with chaotic emotions how’d you feel If you great grandma was raped and stripped of pride Unknowingly leaving her future generations lost and blind Black faces misplaced, lost behind brick, steel and barbed fences Their foot on our…

I was given my fifteen minutes of fame Now compare it with these twenty-eight years of shame Living ghetto fabulous was hazardous; it’s called a crime Looking for freedom and liberation from this paused time Fossilized personalities, mentalities that want to grow Where fat lockers and pressed whites make the highest of the low Conforming…

Originally posted June 5, 2018 I’m wondering about these anonymous slaves With their anonymous faces and anonymous pains An anonymous struggle that some still fight today The same anonymous tortures with their calloused ways Anonymous scars that will never fade away Blood shed from anonymous victims, some would say We’re playing an anonymous game of give or take We’re…

Conditioned to be weapons of genocide Behind each trigger mechanism a genus hides Unconscious time bombs that are self-destructive Unstable volcanos that are very eruptive Elastic pulled too tight, but when will the tension break Our hostility for the enemy is towards our own for God’s sake Envy and greed directed towards our brothers’ success…

Originally posted June 2020 TuPac changed his message, then coincidently ended up dead When you awake a nation’s conscience they place a price on your head Dred Scott sued for his freedom and was heckled out the courtroom Yelling, “Nigger you remain a slave! Go back to picking cotton, coon!” Collin Kapernick was blackballed, for…

You know everyone remembers Malcolm X, Dr. King, Nelson Mandela, even Rosa Parks But who remembers the young brothers that lived in your hoods, walked your streets, and died alone in the dark If no one will remember them, then I guess it’s up to me So understand when I say R.I.P. This is for…
