Seasonal Change
With Summer came light
With Fall came bare trees and bare hopes
With Winter came darkness
Both inside and out
Not sure if I can live without
Damn this crooked society
In the face of a wicked nation
I’m growing to be patient
To make my mark
To make my folks proud
To make my presence felt
Every blow I took was below the belt
But I’m through the pain
All the welts
Are for show
Toe to toe with my greatest enemy
It is the Ali of all enemies
All my success is just a tease
I could claw for help, beg and plead
Toe to toe with life
Face to face with death
