If I pass away and become famous 
Like to the next level famous 
World known
I want my legacy to be 
Well protected 
And not tarnished....
I want my family to carry 
My legacy my poetic license 
Everywhere they go 
Don't give it to anybody 
Don't let them burn it
Don't let them plagiarize

Cos there are the things 
I said on paper are true
It will make people uncomfortable 
And I don't give a damn about 
Somebody's feelings 
Even i got white friends....

Don't erase my messages 
Please 
Don't erase my black power 
My stories
There are someone out there who adore 
Poetry adore words and need some encouragement 
To think, to have a critical thinkin 
To be inspired.....

My poems 
Are about love 
About black people
About ableism 
About white supremacy 
About life in general....

Let the world heal 
Let the parts of the world 
Change its heart
Let them choose 
Let them be ignorant 

But please 
Keep my poetry in a safe 
Locked in a room of our home....
Famous or not,
Keep my legacy alive 
Never let a writin publishin company 
Do a wicked business 
Never trust an editor 
It's not always about the bag....

Don't let them trick you 
Into givin up my masterpieces 
My timeless creation 
Into their foolishness 
Cos 

We will never know....

I wanted to be a famous poet 
In the world I wanted to become a poet laureate 
And write for people who have no voices and lost their 
Voices....kind of like a ghost writer in a way 
But not really.....

If I drift off from this Mother Earth,
If I ever go and be gone forever,
Keep my poems alive 
Can you do that for me?
Please?

I want my voice to be heard even after death. You know how people make money off someone’s death and that can be very wicked. I don’t want that situation. People are greedy and they wanted to control the access. For Michael Jackson after his passing, there are still people who are taking advantage of his legacy. And I heard that white man who is making profits off the biopic in the instagram comment section. It does make me think twice because I forgot Mike is still being used. I don’t know if I wanted to see this movie or not. There’s one man who worked with mj before can’t be trusted. He’s a white guy. I need to google him. I forgot his name. There is so much racism in that situation that we’re not aware of. And this is why I write this piece. I’m sure there are a lot of wicked book publishing companies will take advantage of authors even after they passed. There are similar situations as Michael but different. I hope you know where I am getting at.
