Words That Speak Poem by Sheshu Babu
Words That Speak
Nothing can express emotions
Than written words that speak
In a milieu of racist repressions
Black voices creek....
Who knows the mental torture
In a country engulfed in racist picture
The struggles to avoid insult
And searching ways to come out?
Yet, his undaunted courage
Established him on world stage
As a prolific inspiring writer
Expressing his determination as a relentless fighter
(To the first black pulitzer prize winner James Allan McPherson who overcame crushing poverty of his childhood and ultimately entered Harvard Law School and became a writing teacher. His second collection of fiction in 1977 won the Pulitzer prize the following year)
Yes truly said of Mr. James Allan McPherson - his undaunted courage Established him on world stage
Mental torture provokes thought. Mind needs care and life needs love. Emotion is well expressed in words. An amazing poem is very brilliantly penned.10
