when something seems like it will never reach irrelevance, i take it it is a message from God. that's my sentiments as far as this poem is concerned.
TOO SAD INDEED!

This man was one of the torchbearers for modern poetry. R.I.P. Oscar Brown Jr. we can only hope the children of children will, at the very least, turn out with voices as eloquent as your own.

sampled this and made a deep house track from Oscar's poem. I have also used a sample of a young girl singing a skipping song to capture the innocence of youth. Please listen , any comments welcome. I would like to rework some of Oscars material and bring to a new younger audience who might not get to hear him. soundcloudcom/lewis-fisher/lew

This poem.....Pushing all ignorance aside this poem is the defenittion of this generation.....The love is gone....Children are battered and broken and angry...The is no Respect....There is no discipline because they subconciously destroy the past when mother are no longer mother and father are only shadows....And through it all still only just children...The world isnt the same....I think thats what he was trying to say....
