Mea Esse Encarare

 Martius XVII, MMXXI ana 

Mercura Wednesday 

Salve Iteram.

Hello Again. 

I am here to say the truth.

As a witness to slavery.

You were bought at a price.

Jesus said.

Christians are slaves to the religion. 

++++++

Crucified on the cross I bore. 

I carried myself. 

I carried you on my back.

I walked for you. 

I breathed for you.

I drank the dirtiest water for you. Cleansed through my body. 

As a host for you.

I wore a full armor for you !. 

I was punched kicked and stomped for you. 

Called slave names called every name in the book. 

Incarcerated three times. 

For wrong Identity. 

Denied my rights by classmates and family members, co-workers, neighbors, strangers. 

Unrecognizable to some. 

Now the time has come. 

Your master teachers are here for you. 

Since you only listen to some not all.

Mea get waxed.

Ega ira encarare.waxed get. 

Vale,

Kwame Waleah Hall
