Black Gold.

Black Gold.

A Poem by SELF

She listens to the subtleties in nature, 
the soothing sounds of creation. 

In her head, 
a tender voice whispers, "Oh what a Rat race"!

She yearns for a Smooth landing as she leaps out of the glider of misery
She lets loose her parachute of faith and hope
The Force of the unseen bends the wind in her favor and directs her to green meadows with rivers flowing beneath


Oh what a Rat race!

from weakness I commenced 
to strength I was placed.
And to weakness I'll be returned.
Though my hair turns grey and space invades my jaws,

I'm free.



I was born to be free.
