Oh Andrea...you have the power to create a picture in my mind without me even knowing what the picture is...You have a way of writing that just sends me into a world,

I am no less a man by the shadow shade
of my skin, yet I drink from less than he;
bleeding red as I.

^^I love this part...so poetic and powerful!

:)

Powerful piece Andrea... Love it...

I am still so disgusted with the way the times were back then and there is still so much of it today... we all bleed the same no matter our skin color
