SEA HAUNT.

[boitumelo]

STANDING BY THE SHORE,LOOKING OUT INTO THE SEA...IN MY MIND IMAGES OF SLAVE SHIPS I BEGIN TO SEE..WHITE MEN CAPTURING AFRICANS UPON THEIR AFRICAN SAND. .FORCING THEM INTO A SHIP'S CARGO HOLE,LEAVING THEIR AFRICAN LAND..MEN,WOMEN AND CHILDREN,CHAINED,SHACKLED CONFINED...A WAY TO ESCAPE AND FLEE IN THEIR MIND...DIFFERENT PLACES IN AFRICA THEY ARE FROM. DIFFERENT TRIBES EACH WITH A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE TONGUE...FROM THE CARGO HOLE,AFRICAN SLAVES FORCED UPON THE SHIP'S DECK.SLAVE CAPTIVES WITH CHAINS SHACKLES ON THEIR WRIST,ANKLES AND NECK.LUCIFER HIMSELF THE CAPTAIN ON THE SLAVE SHIP..JOYFULLY BEATING THE SLAVES WITH HIS WHIP..SLAVES THROWN OVERBOARD DAY AND DARK.BOUNTIFUL FEAST,THE SLAVE SHIPS FOLLOWED BY SHARKS..AND THE SLAVES ON SUNKEN SLAVE SHIPS,DO THE SOULS OF THOSE SLAVES WITH THE OCEAN MOAN/ DO THEY WANDER AT THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN DEEP,OR DID THEY FIND AWAY BACK TO THEIR AFRICAN HOME////SLAVE SHIP ARRIVES TO AMERICA,SLAVES FORCED OFF,THEIR PEOPLE THEY DO NOT SEE,NOT HEARING SOUNDS OF TRIBAL DRUMS,ELPHANTS OR THE LIONS ROAR...UNKNOWN TO THEM THE HELL THAT AWAITS THEM ON THIS STRANGE AND DISTANT SHORE.../.....
