“Sankofa” feat. Erin

(24”24”; Acrylic on Canvas)

Who is this man

that came along

I know his face

but not his song

Could it be I

thats lost in time

Or when I was caught

did he still hide

Or did he hide

Does he know the struggle

When I speak

will he catch my words so subtle

So cultural

So natural

So deep within me

For when I look behind

the veil of eyes

I see myself in thee
