Coal: a black anthem
Coal coal!!!!
These while pale children call themself diamonds,
Oh blonde smooth hairs, and look at those marble eyes
looks like a sculpture carved carefully with time
That's good and beautiful
but...why am I considered coal?!
A man of mud?!
Is it because my skin is dark
My hairs are hard?
or is it because my land was described as a dork?!
Yeah, I'm a coal
when I burn I light the world and spread warmth
but what a pity?!,
To you diamonds,
after being so pricey
Just meant to show off...
What a pity-no purpose?
Call me sh*t or call me coal
but...
Here's a fact...
In front of whom you knee yourself down
the child of God, the sacrificer-
Christ was coal...
His skin was dark and his land was described as dork!!!
Now call me coal or call me sh*t but...
Just keep in mind, christ is coal
And,
coal is me!!!
Yeah!!!
Hard, Hard....dark dork coal!!!

Hey I am Gron, or just call me GF, so here is this very small free verse poetry piece called 'coal', though I am not a poet and this is my first ever poem writing but being a supporter of black life matters, this poem is dedicated to calling those who are being bullied...so just read it and say the tag like 'Yeah, I am a coal' and be proud of yourself
Please comment...if you like or have some suggestions for the same poem.
moreover, i would really be releasing something on more topics of my liking and even from yours if you share your favorite topics.... leave it in the comments
love,
Your
GF
