And Actually(Echoing) Poem by Cherokee Akan Ewe

And Actually(Echoing)



we use to write Tomes
still do now
and even type em up
across the world professors to teachers
you will can't catch me on the cellular
speaking with professors from the Roots
we talk academically and futuristically
they the big ants posted directing
Elders indeed
and actually(echoing)
i was reminded to always come multifacted academically
like a falcon i'm on target at mach striking speed
got em...
one more goal achieved
and another get put up
like my Muthaz i stay focused
electrically enlightened
protected as self the shield holding his own owning more subsidiaries owned
and actually(echoing) ...
i be turning the young homegurlz on
when their male kin ain't around to change the filaments out
blowing other cobwebs
those no good housespiders done been left
ever since the pest stopping coming around
now the pest be getting smarter
watching the door crack carefully
testing boundaries
legs get caught down on something stick icky
and dem other legs which be in motion comes swifter preplanned and attentive
little homegurl tripping on the smiles of the Akan storytelling style nonstop concoct due hot locked
keys tucked and uncopied
original copy with no carbon traces
true aces
many faces of no smiles
eyes of knives
meal ticket per minutes within a resuscitation
knowledges across the flatline got em equalized thumping frum jumping
and actually(echoing) ....
