this is trbute toa teacher,
 i was stolen from our our embraces
 givcen the name the colonial name,
my great grandmother mother called
benedita de castro
when her name wasnt benedira de castro,
her father was ezequieo the castro when
ezequiel de castro wasnnt his name either,
when petronilha de castro wasnt her name either,

from monomomotopa,
and the manukongo,
i hear abouta great man,
a great ebonbite man,
whose name is patrrice lumumba,
from distant lands
in bisni ehkwewe
he told told about olemu nooka,
 and place called bogodwa,
on which the portuguse calls brazil,

my teacher comes from the tradtions
of the traditions of priests and priestesees,
going back to the osirric schools
of alexandria,
harag the sofia and
the temoles of LALIBELA,
pre dating the dawn of islam,
pr4e dating the dating christianity,
pre dating rastafarism,

because europe
middle east used to be part of afrika,
afrika is the name that the invaders used to
call it the big cake,

when our ancesators call it ankheburan
i know we were stolen from our embraces.
