Aye To The Man. by joseph1832(m): 8:45am On Dec 11, 2015
Aye to the man
Who tumble and became,
A voice in the temple.
Who came from yonder,
And became a wonder.
Who took a step,
That didn't end in a misstep.




Aye to the man
Who was scarred,
And became a martyr.
Who was maimed,
And became tamed.
Who stared in the face of danger,
When others flee into the manger.




Aye to the man
Who fought oppression,
And oppressed oppression.
Who fought intimidation,
And refused to be intimidated.
Who uphold justice,
Where there's injustice.




Aye to the man
Who fought for freedom,
Freedom from second slavery.
Who traveled the hills of Futa Jallon,
And settled along,
The plains of Damesa,
And secured a visa,
Traveled the land of the imperialist,
Came back with a list,
And swam the waters of Shiroro,
And emerged a hero.




Aye to the man
Who was baptize with fire,
And wore it like an attire,
Who refuse to retire,
When oppression aspire,
To crossfire,
With men who uphold the desire,
Never to ceasefire,
When intimidation attempt
To cause quagmire.




Aye to the man
Who was named
The name of names,
So he can tame,
And attain the strength
Of our fore fathers,
So he can father the zeal,
That will make his seed,
Stand the test of time.




Aye to the man
Who reads this poem,
And then churn,
The zeal to horn,
The concepts of Pan Africanism,
Rugged individualism,
Intellectual Radicalism,
And Negritude.
Aye to the man!.

Aye to you my good man. Each and everyone of those concepts have a very great mind behind it, and the mind is black, its African, and its beautiful.
