A tree has a memory
A tree has a memory…
It Remembers
The bodies
Tight rope
No breath
Can’t forget death…
Do you know
That tree is hauntin?
Holds a lot of
History of
Blood, laughter
Cries
An ugliest event
Like major cruel cookout
Eatin parts of humans
Makin gifts out of evil
A tree has witnessed it all
On earth
This soil
Carry that pain while
These pale skinned nations
Covered their own tracks….
A tree doesn’t forget
A tree will always remember
The trunk feels decades tragedy
Trauma spread its roots
Now the branches are used to hangin
Souls…melaninated souls
Lost unfound
A tree has a memory
It reminisces the days
Of lies from a white woman
Without tears but a wicked smile
On her face….
She puts a black man on a tree
Cos he raped her
When it’s a fib..
She wanted to kill him
And the tree listens
I’m sure a tree
Doesn’t wanna hang
An innocent black man…
They force that big plant
To hang him…
A tree has observed it all
Absorb all the death and hurt
Cos of cruelty of white people
They wanna put us in our place
For existin…for being human…
Tree has that flashbacks
of barbaric behaviors…
And if a tree can talk
And say the truth
You can’t shut it up
Even if you put a needle
Or cut it down
The tree will never stop
Speakin facts…
Cos again,
A tree has a memory,,,
