A Poem for James Brown

Here's another Black History Month poem. Enjoy!

A poem for James Brown


You were a man that knew how to take control

Always & forever the undisputed Godfather of Soul.

You were a man that let lose be it with dance or

the microphone. Through your songs you made us

think about life with a style that was all your owm.

Because of you, you made it cool for me to shout it out loud.

& it's because of you I'm not scared or ashamed

to say that I'm black & I'm proud!
