I WAS A YOUNG BLACK FOOL

My soul cries for the blind. It’s a deadly mistake to be absent-minded of your life and surroundings. How can you escape if you aren’t conscious of the fact that you’re caged? You can’t! - - - I was there! I was blind. I was ignorant. I was a young black fool! I say that uninhibitedly, because I keep it real…ain’t no other way to see that.
