She Is a Precious Flower

She is a Precious flower…
Devoured by the system that states….
That baby girls should be womanized by the age of eight…
The Mini skirt…the half shirts…the lipstick purple grape…
No hula hoop but watch the loops of her hips gyrate…
Every video demeans her young fragile state of being…
Disco ho’s put in mentals women shouldn’t be heard but
seen…
So we’ve seen her evolve from Precious…losing front tooth…
To hardened sexually aggressive by her teenage youth…
Toss a condom…hear the whirr of abortion vacuums…
Satisfaction demands action…slip boys out fruit of the
looms…
So check the scene…
Look at the cover of the next teen magazine…
And what you are seeing…is Precious undressed at 16…
Old men fiend…daddies and uncles fingers caressing…
Now she’s undressing…
To restore what was taken away….
The Sense of security, safety and male trust that was a must…
But Precious is stuck…thinking her only value is sexed up….
And so I look out at the world tear drops moisten my eyes…
I don’t cry…cuzz I guess in some ways too I am hardened
inside….
So Precious…for a second let me speak directly to you….
You not doomed…but flowers need sunshine to bloom…
And you have been battered and scarred…sensitivity shook…
But your diamond is your spirit…Precious…which remains
uncorrupt…
Beauty created by God…a gift to the earth…
Protect the seed of life…in death evil men will hurt…
And your dirty from fingers, lies, half truths and worse…
Male lust invaded consciousness…perverse…
You have bee raped and violated…unwillingly sedated…
Picture naked…this provoked you to intense self-hatred…
But everything God creates is good…
No matter what you see in Hollywood…
Even diamonds aren’t valued if buried in the mud….
But it is your time to shine…Precious…for who you are…
Don’t let what you have done shackle you in bars…
Remove the scars, Precious…
Take your rightful place amongst the stars….

Intense and surprisingly insightful, Dell...

Thank you for the sample...

Its good to see this side of your mind...

I will check out your book....



Salaam...

Nice vibe

Very nice Dell.

One small suggestion though. Why not change the title to "She IS a Precious Flower"?

You know as I re-read it when I put it up, I thought the exact same thing.

I bumped my "Our Poetry" thread for you Dell... I'll have to add another poem...

However, when you get a moment... it would be nice if you would lend your talents to the thread...

thanks...

Okay... I'll take that as a "No"


I'll come back and add my own....

Nope... He saw it already... it apparently was not something he wished to do ....

its okay though...

I would have liked to read more from him.... but he has a book out and I'm not trying to distract from that marketing pursuit....

Ha...no, I will post more later. I am not marketing the book at all in fact. I don't really care about it other than as something that I did in the past.

I will post more later.
