My Pen

My pen is my resistance. With my pen, I seek to create a picture that stirs action. With my pen I can challenge all ideas and concepts that seek to classify me as less than. With my pen, I can construct a vision of blackness that is not plagued with despair and hopelessness. My pen is free of the societal constraints that seek to entangle me. My pen is my instrument that I use to try and inspire an audience. Also, my pen provides me hope in the midst of obstacles and struggles. My pen paints a picture of a future that I am working towards. My pen does not know doubt. It is unrealistically optimistic and it is my pen that keeps me free.
